Galion G6000 Lidar
Optimize wind park placement and sizing with the Galion G6000.
Renewable energy is essential for a sustainable future, and in the Netherlands, wind power leads the way. At Mecal Applied Mechanics, we're dedicated to optimizing the efficiency of every wind turbine. That's why, together with a consortium of partners, we developed the G6000 Lidar.
How can the G6000 Lidar benefit wind parks?
When a new wind park is built, correct placement and sizing are essential to ensure you are getting the most out of each wind turbine. The G6000 Lidar is guaranteed to gather data within a range of 6 kilometres, giving you greater insights on important factors to wind park placement such as wind speeds, turbulence intensities, wake effects of existing turbines, complex terrain, main wind direction, shear effects, and much more. With the G6000 Lidar, optimizing wind park performance can be done through data-driven decision making, resulting in lasting and efficient wind parks.
A collaboration with Wood
Through a partnership with Wood, we have brought together our skills, experience, and knowledge of the wind energy sector to develop a product tailored to meet the needs of the industry and deliver practical, effective solutions.
Designed to suit your needs
The Galion G6000 lidar delivers the flexibility and precision required for optimizing wind energy projects. With advanced features and adaptable configurations, it empowers you to gather critical insights tailored to your specific requirements, no matter where you are.
Reliability
The G6000 Lidar features a robust design aimed to withstand harsh environmental conditions, allowing it to operate in various environments such as in marine conditions, in the arctic, or at desert locations.
Accuracy
The accuracy-enhancement software of the device allows it to achieve high angular speeds with a positioning accuracy of at least 0.1 degrees in both elevation and azimuth direction. This makes the G6000 Lidar a reliable tool for all your wind-measurement applications.
Configurable from everywhere
Get control of scanner parameters wherever you are. Together with an easy-to-use interface, the G6000 Lidar’s full remote access allows for monitoring and control of your wind measurement campaigns, wherever you are.
