Identification of wind-rich sites requires multiple engineering-cum-scientific skills. SMD's Wind Resource Department (WRD) has a strong team of experts with niche skills which enables them to see the normally unseen aspects of wind engineering.

A continuous watch by the WRD on the dynamics of wind behavior enables our management to make crucial decisions at the right time with respect to the project.

The team also helps in deciding the right turbine for the right site. Our WRD is equipped with the best tools and staff specializing in data analytics, it's mining and interpretation.

As an integrated operator with a pan India presence, SMD covers the entire renewable energy value chain, from wind resource assessment to project development, to its execution, right to its operation and maintenance, essentially managing all phases of the project in-house.

IDENTIFICATION OF WIND RICH SITES:

INSTALLATION OF ONSITE MASTS WIND DATA MONITORING:

Wind masts are installed with required sensors for recording accurate data related to wind and weather.

Wind masts are equipped with Automatic Data Logging System, Anemometers and other sensors to accurately record wind and weather data. We collect data from across the country from our wind mast at heights of circa 125m.

WIND DATA ANALYSIS 

Using state of the art software, the WRD can produce reports characterizing the statistics of wind data, including wind shear patterns, daily and seasonal patterns, wind roses, wind power density, and turbulence intensity etc.
