Meteo Station Design and Campaign Planning
Meteo station design and measurement campaign planning.
Independent, bankability-focused resource and energy yield assessment for renewable energy projects.
SgurrEnergy's meteo station design and campaign planning specifies a bankable meteorological measurement campaign for a renewable energy project, defining station siting, sensors, data loggers, campaign duration and data quality protocols. It ensures wind and solar resource data is collected in a representative, usable way that lenders and investors will accept for later bankability review.
Why This Service Matters
SgurrEnergy supports measurement campaign planning so wind and solar resource data is collected in a way that is usable, representative and suitable for future bankability review.
When This Service Is Needed
- A project requires a bankable measurement campaign
- Existing resource data is insufficient or poorly located
- A developer is planning met mast, LiDAR, pyranometer or weather station deployment
- Resource campaign design must align with lender or investor expectations
