EOLOS
EOLOS Floating Lidar Solutions offers a cost-effective, accurate and highly reliable integrated wind measuring system for offshore applications.
Offshore wind farm investments need reliable wind assessments in order to estimate the wind energy potential of the site where the wind turbines will be installed. Performing wind assessments with no high quality on-site data increases the uncertainty, hindering the project’s bankability and increasing the financial risks of the project.
EOLOS can help offshore wind developers to significantly reduce capital costs during the development phase, when the final investment decision (FID) has not yet been reached, thus reducing a significant risk since at this stage only a portfolio approach hedges against failure.
The EOLOS LiDAR Buoy is a fully-equipped and autonomous wind, wave and current measuring system based on LIDAR technology and provided with oceanographic instrumentation, which allows to perform measurements at heights of more than 200m over the sea level at much lower costs than conventional bottom-fixed offshore met masts.
