Metocean
DeepCWind, in close partnership with Woods Hole Group and UMaine, uses DeepCLiDAR, an advanced metocean buoy outfitted with LIDAR that can be used in remote marine environments to provide high-quality, low-cost offshore wind resource data, metocean monitoring, and ecological characterization capabilities.
HIGH-QUALITY, LOW-COST OFFSHORE WIND RESOURCE DATA:
- 1/10 the cost of a traditional meteorological tower for wind resource assessments
- Deployable in virtually any water depth
- Capable of providing bankable wind speed data up to 200m above sea-level
- Fully-integrated metocean sensor package provides wave and current data
- Optional ecological monitoring sensor package for permitting efforts developed
