2023 WindCube® scientific digest
Get ahead with the latest WindCube lidar research
Lidar is steadily replacing met masts as the wind energy industry’s modern standard for Wind Resource Assessment and Power Performance Testing. The success of our globally recognized WindCube lidar suite is rooted in a long history of scientific discovery, investment, and advocacy. New and ongoing scientific studies continue to prove WindCube wind lidar as the gold standard for wind measurements.
Take advantage of the latest research and deepen your understanding of WindCube lidar technology with presentations created by Vaisala scientists and other industry experts. Subjects range from comparative analyses and novel measurement techniques to onshore and offshore suitability studies, and much more. The latest presentations will be posted here as they become available.
WindEurope Copenhagen 2023
Enhancement of Lidar feed-forward control technology through embedded wind reconstruction and preview solution
How to conduct a dual scanning lidar campaign: Recommendations towards a standardised workflow
Dual Scanning Lidars (DSL) are gaining increased acceptance for offshore WRA. DNV and Vaisala provide a set of recommendations towards a standardized workflow of offshore WRA using DSL.
Leveraging Scanning LiDAR offshore how Europe can learn from Japan Atsushi Yoshimura
Validation of the Dual Scanning Lidar by GPI in Japan confirming accuracy and suitability of this set up for offshore WRA. The results have also met KPIs set by the Japanese regulator NEDO.
Nacelle-Mounted Lidar reduce the uncertainty of Power Performance Test by Met Mast
Campaign results using nacelle-mounted lidar for Power Performance Testing, showing high accuracy and less uncertainty of NML.
Time to leverage Nacelle Mounted Lidar for Turbulence Intensity measurement using a new filtering method
Understanding Pulsed Lidar Data
Data availability simulator and new lidar range boosting technique to maximize vertical profiling lidar data availability in clear air locations.
Which lidar system should be used for offshore wind resource assessments in the Greek market?
Map of the Dual Scanning Lidar uncertainty across the Greek offshore region compared to the Floating Lidar. DSL presents a good opportunity for offshore wind development in this region.
WindEurope 2023 - Technology Workshop
Enhancement of Lidar feed-forward control technology through embedded wind reconstruction and preview solution
Benefits of measuring windshear and REWS using nacelle-mounted lidar. Both results show high accuracy and reduced uncertainty for Power Performance Testing.
Wind Energy Science Conference 2023
Development of a Generalized Framework for Point and Lidar Measurement Sensitivities in Turbulent, Complex Flow
