Offshore Wind Accelerator: Floating LiDAR Turbulence Intensity

Calling for entries from companies and consortia interested in undertaking a study for the OWA Yield and Performance Technical Working Group (TWG-Y) to understand the current state of turbulence intensity measurements from floating LiDAR systems and provide recommendations for turbulence intensity validation from Floating LiDAR Systems.

The main objectives of this work are to:

  • Undertake an assessment of TI accuracy from analysis of data
  • Develop an overview of methods to improve FLS TI measurements
  • Provide recommendations for improving or developing new standards for validating TI FLS 

The expected benefits of this work are that the groundwork will begin to be laid to ultimately allow site-specific offshore TI measurements without requiring met masts.

The deadline for clarification questions has passed. Responses to the clarification questions received are provided below.

The closing date to receive tender submissions is 20 June 17:00 BST.

All clarification questions and tender submissions should be sent electronically, by their respective deadlines to hector.wilson@carbontrust.com, with tom.wishart@carbontrust.com in copy.
