Organisation profile

Organisation profile

Our ambition is to make the wind visible through advanced remote sensing technology. By investigating atmospheric flow phenomena related to wind resources, wind turbine site conditions, and atmospheric conditions in general, we can develop better design and siting of wind farms, increase power production and reduce loads.

Focused on the lowest part of the atmosphere, we develop and use scanning wind lidars to validate meteorological theories and models relevant for wind energy. We also sense offshore winds by satellite in order to understand flow around wind farms. We characterize turbulence and precipitation which create adverse conditions for wind turbines.

UN Sustainable Development Goals

In 2015, UN member states agreed to 17 global Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) to end poverty, protect the planet and ensure prosperity for all. Our work contributes towards the following SDG(s):

  • SDG 7 - Affordable and Clean Energy
  • SDG 8 - Decent Work and Economic Growth
  • SDG 13 - Climate Action
  • SDG 14 - Life Below Water
  • SDG 15 - Life on Land
