Met One Instruments Renewable Energy Products
Renewable energy is on the rise worldwide. Met One Instruments, Inc. offers several devices and sensors to assist in the smooth operation of renewable energy systems. Solar farms, for example, require real time measurements of ambient temperature, relative humidity, precipitation, solar panel temperature (usually measured on the backside of the panel), and the incoming solar radiation twice, in the plane of the panel and parallel to the ground. Met One offers solutions to all these requirements. Panel output is a function of the air temperature, the panel temperature, panel cleanliness, and the incoming solar radiation. The rain and humidity can help inform operators if the panels are getting cleaned naturally or if they need to send personnel out to the site to clean them. In regard to wind farming, Met One offers an array of weather sensors that are used for site prospecting, as well as on the turbines to monitor wind speed and direction at hub height and to orient the turbine into the wind for optimal performance.
