Partnering
Windlab Systems is a leader in the science of wind energy resource assessment. We have the people and tools to help you find the best sites and to manage your technical risk throughout development. We will share the risk and are committed to helping you secure a portfolio of cost-effective global wind assets.
With our partners and clients, we are progressing a development portfolio in excess of 1500MW. We have a number of projects at various stages of feasibility in Australia, New Zealand, Canada & South Africa.
Locate Sites Easily
Locating viable wind energy sites can be difficult. Windlab's mapping technology and scientific staff help identify good sites at lower cost. All you need to do is tell us where you want to operate.
Understand the Risks Early
Once we have identified a site, Windlab's Virtual Wind Farm™ report helps us you understand the risks early. We help you make judgements about potential energy yield, ease of construction, turbulence, noise limitations and visual impact.
Effective Communication
Communicating with stakeholders has traditionally been a challenging aspect of wind energy developments. Modelling the site early helps explain both the benefits and the potential impact of the proposed facility. With this information, more detailed discussions with key stakeholders can be undertaken early in the process.
Defer Costs
With the vast majority of projects failing early, it is important to keep expenditure low in the prospecting phase of the development cycle. As your partner. As your partner, Windlab will not take fees until the project progresses. This means we are focused on achieving a successful outcome. We share the risk.
Reduce Modelling Risk
Mistakes in turbine placement leads to reduced yield and increased maintenance costs. Such mistakes are often due to using models outside the range of steepness and surface terrain for which they were designed. Our RaptorNL and RaptorC models are designed to extend the usable range and allow you to make better, more cost-effective decisions in difficult terrain.
The Best Advice
The atmosphere is a complicated physical system. Even the best state-of-the-art models benefit from having skilled meteorologists interpret the results. As our partner, you will benefit from our world-leading experience and skill in wind assessment technologies.
