The wind measurement centre aims to offer the renewable sector “the most accurate data and predictions on wind resource assessment to ensure the wind energy project is successful.”

WMI will provide a turnkey solution for wind measurement and analysis from site surveys, installation of met masts, data capture and monitoring to the provision of reports for banks and planning authorities.

Padraig Brady, Managing Director of Obelisk Energy Group says: “A vital element for any successful wind energy project is an accurate assessment of the wind energy potential at the planning stage. With the introduction of WMI the industry will have unmatched access to world leading experts and technical resources in the field of met mast installation and wind measurement.”
