Using all its experience and knowledge in the area of measuring masts, EPA developed an innovative design of a 120-metree lattice measuring mast.

We are convinced that wind data recorded by the offered measuring mast will significantly improve the accurracy of electricity productivity assessments, significantly lowering the risk of improper and costly decisions upon investment planning phase.

Description

• The mast is very slender and light, weighing only approximately 24 kg per one metre of height.
• It is a triangular lattice structure divided into 3-metre sections weighing approximately 72 kg each.
• The mast is galvanised to endure corrosion resistance and painted in accordance with obstacle marking requirements.
• The structure is stabilised by nine levels of guy wires.
• Guy wires are anchored using an innovative system of multiple-use soil anchors.
• The mast is equipped with an independent power source. Measuring equipment and obstacle marking is supplied from PV cells and a small wind turbine.
• The mast has been designed with multiple use in mind; erection does not require costly civil works.
• The mast is erected using a dedicated crane, designed to allow for rapid and safe assembly and to eliminate high construction costs of access roads required for heavy self-propelled cranes

Data

• Material: steel
• Section length: 3 m
• Section weight: 72 kg
• Booms designed to EN-61400-12-1 ensuring the highest measurement quality

EPA not only provides wind measurement services; we offer a comprehensive approach to wind resource analysis. As a result of a measuring campaign the Client receives a full set of raw and processed wind data together with an analysis. Many years of experience and knowledge gained during implementation of wind farm projects are the best recommendation and guarantee of the highest quality of our services.

For many years we have been a reliable and valued partner on the Polish market.

EPA offers a wide range of services related to the assessment of wind resources and energy yield for potential investment sites. Our offer includes:

• wind data processing,
• wind turbine micrositing,
• noise impact analysis,
• development of digital terrain model,
• wind farm productivity assessment,
• analysis of potential losses related to energy production,
• verification and audit of wind farm projects,
• development of wind maps for any area.

Professional wind measurements and analyses carried out by EPA constitute the basis for the application for financial means and EU funds for the investment.

We also offer independent consultancy services consisting in verification of methodology and documentation necessary to acquire a building permit.
