PIN - Atlantic Marine Energy Test Site - Floating LiDAR

Description

This is a prior information notice in relation to the development of the Atlantic Marine Energy Test Site (AMETS). Sustainable Energy Authority of Ireland is notifying companies and consortia with the expertise and skills capable of installing, operating and maintaining a Floating LiDAR System (FLS) at AMETS and provide “data as a service” for the data collected. The main objective of this work is to accurately record wind speeds and direction up to 300 meters above sea level using the FLS. The expected benefit of this work is to provide detailed wind data to technology developers planning on testing their structures at AMETS. The FLS will be located 16km west of Belderra Strand, Co Mayo, Ireland, in 100m water depth. www.etenders.gov.ie
