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
