Wind Datalogger Development Week in Toulouse, France

Wind Empowerment is organising a “Wind Datalogger Development Week” to advance the development of a data logger for small wind turbines from 20 – 25 April 2015 in Toulouse, France.

The aim of this workshop, which is initiated by members of Wind Empowerment’s Measurement Working Group, is to build a logger to collect data from multiple sensors: an anemometer and wind vane to measure the wind speed and direction and a current/voltage transducer to measure the power produced by the turbine (for both on and off-grid systems). The data collected by this method will allow manufacturers, installers and users, as well as students, to better understand and improve the production of small wind turbines.

More information on the activities and events of the Development Week is available here: Wind Empowerment Development Week.

Details about the location of the workshop can be found here: Lîlegal.

There will also be a webinar on 24 April, where the team in Toulouse will summarise progress to date and answer any questions from the audience:

Friday, 24 April 2015, 4:00 PM – 5:00 PM GMT. You may join the meeting from your computer, tablet or smartphone by following this link.
