Wind Measurement Mast
Adjacent to the solar park at Glava Energy Center stands a 30-meter-tall wind measurement mast that gauges wind speed and direction at higher altitudes. The original purpose of the mast was to measure wind conditions in Hillringsberg for wind turbine specification.
Wind sensors are placed at 10 and 30 meters in height. Wind direction and speed are logged using a data logger connected through a WEB solution from TEROC. The data logger is powered by a solar panel and battery affixed to the mast.
