Case Studies

The Windar LIDAR is strongly differentiated from any comparable product currently available globally

Windar Photonics

Windar Photonics have developed and patented a cost effective and innovative light detection and ranging (“LIDAR”) system for wind turbines. The Company is able to market its system at a fraction of the cost of comparable products.

The product emits light in front of a wind turbine which identifies the movement of tiny particles in the air, whereby accurately predicting the speed and direction of the oncoming wind. The system then adjusts the pitch and yaw of the blades to improve the efficiency and power output of the wind turbine.

Major operators in the sector that have purchased the product include; General Electric, Envision, EON, Vestas and Gamesa.
