Accurate Data Solutions for Wind Energy: The Latest 80m Met Mast Installation

At Galetech Measurement Services, we proudly announce the completion of another 80-metre met mast installation. This project reflects our commitment to providing accurate and bankable data solutions for renewable energy developers.

About the Project

The installation of this 80m meteorological mast was executed in line with IEC 61400-50-1 standards. This ensures the highest level of data integrity. The mast is equipped with several advanced instruments, including:

• First Class Advanced II anemometers positioned at multiple heights

• Wind vanes for directional measurement

• Barometric pressure and temperature sensors

• A data logging and remote telemetry system for real-time data access

  
  

Our dedicated team managed the project from initial site assessments to full commissioning. This included groundworks, mast erection, and instrument installation.

Importance of Met Masts in Renewables

Despite the rise of LiDAR technology, met masts remain essential in wind resource assessment. They play a critical role in validating remote sensing devices. Moreover, these masts provide long-term reference data, which is vital for investment-grade reporting and wind farm bankability.

Project Highlights

• Height: 80 metres

• Compliance: IEC 61400-50-1 standard

• Safety: Zero incidents—built and commissioned under strict health and safety protocols

• Outcome: A high-resolution data stream is now live and supports ongoing resource analysis
