Wind Industry Profile of


ZX Measurement Services chosen for wind measurements at proposed Scawd Law Wind Farm

Renewable energy developer Fred. Olsen Renewables has contracted wind resource campaign management specialist ZX Measurement Services (ZX MS) to support the construction of their proposed wind farm in Scotland.

ZX MS has now completed a 12 month comprehensive wind measurement campaign, using two ZX 300 wind Lidars at the proposed Scawd Law Wind Farm in Scotland. The site is located on the Holylee Estate approximately 4km north of Walkerburn, in the Scottish Borders and consists of 8-turbines and battery storage – delivering 60MW of clean energy

Ian Ravey, Managing Director at ZX Measurement Services commented: “We are delighted to continue to work with Fred. Olsen Renewables. Our approach to providing world-class wind measurements allows clients to access low-cost and accurate wind measurements using the industry-leading ZX 300 Lidars. We pride ourselves in providing wind data as a service throughout Europe to deliver projects such as these.”

Fred. Olsen Renewables has been active for a long time in Scotland. It has a UK portfolio of 258 operational turbines, alongside a further 76 consented.

Helen Thrasher, Head of Technical at Fred. Olsen Renewables commented: “Deploying Lidar technology at Scawd Law allowed us to collect this vital data from several locations across the complex site, surveying up to our estimated tip height of 180 m. The easily deployable nature of the Lidar meant that we were able to adapt our campaign to improve our modelling accuracy as the project evolved. The experienced team at ZX Measurement Services has provided us with expert support throughout the campaign, from power supply and installation to communications and data measuring. The ease of having one supplier to carry out the full scope of works has been of huge benefit to this project.”
