Equans’ Meteorological Monitoring Module, with optional ZX Lidars technology, helps improve safety and efficiency in offshore wind operations. The module provides real-time environmental data from offshore substations, including accurate wind measurements above the platform to support safe helicopter landings and takeoffs.
The ZX 300M wind Lidar is installed on existing substations. It delivers wind data from 10 metres to 300 metres, supporting safe operations and optimising turbine performance. The Lidar data also supports continual power curve assessments, benchmarking turbine performance against expected output. Early detection of performance anomalies allows operators to plan and execute maintenance proactively
