Wind monitoring installation in Aberdeenshire
For the past 12 months, RDES have been assisting a farmer in Aberdeenshire whom is interested in investigating wind development opportunities at his property. The pre-feasibility study yielded favourable results, and it was decided to conduct wind monitoring for a 12 month period.
After completion of the environmental scoping study and attaining planning approval from council, the 50m wind monitoring mast was installed in November. Our wind energy team, lead by Ian McLean, are monitoring the wind data and compiling monthly averages and statistics for the client. After 12 months of monitoring, the tower shall be decomissioned, and a full feasibility on the site’s economic potential shall be undertaken.
