(Newswire.net — May 27, 2020) — Renewable energies are now more important than ever. They are environmentally friendly alternatives to traditional energy sources like charcoal or nuclear energy. And among all the types of renewable energies, the most efficient one is by far the wind energy. Recent improvements on technology make possible for wind energy to be as cheap as energy produced from radiation or charcoal. This makes wind energy a smart alternative not only for our budget, but also for the planet.

A look into the future of energy

Wind energy saw its boom during the XX century, when turbines would be used to generate energy for farms, homes or areas far from the electricity grid. What made this energy so popular is that it falls under the category of “renewable energies”, which means that it can be produced from an inexhaustible source without damaging the environment. 

But during the XXI century, the technology for wind energy has been developing at a really fast pace. This makes wind energy as cheap to produce as energy from traditional sources like charcoal, while being less damaging for the environment, making wind modeling the energy of the future.

Using environmental friendly sources of energy is now more important than ever. Pollution has reached alarming levels over the last decades, making governments all around the world push up for legislations promoting the use of renewable energies. And since wind energy is the most efficient renewable energy at the moment, it is expected that it will be the main source of energy by 2030. So if you are looking for a new source of energy on your property that will still be on top of the market for the following decades, you should definitely check out this environmental friendly alternative.

Getting the best wind assessments

As we have stated before, wind energy has proven to be one of the best options if you are looking to get a new energy source on your property. But before we jump on into this opportunity, we need to get our wind resource assessment done on the project. Wind resource assessments are the best way to determine how effective a wind farm would be. These sorts of assessments had been run on wind farms since 1970 when they were first developed. They use multiple resources like wind resources maps or measurement tools in order to estimate the possible outcome of a wind farm and find the most efficient option.

Many companies in the market work on wind resource assessments and all of them need the kind of wind resource data that Vortex provides. Vortex generates the most accurate wind resource data in order to make the best predictions and save their clients a lot of money in the long run. 

The first data that Vortex provides their clients with is a wind resource map of the region their clients wish to work with. These maps can be done on any region worldwide (regardless of if the region is both on or off shore) and are key tools to determine if a region is suitable for a wind farm. 

Once the most suitable regions have been found, Vortex provides their clients with the option of using a virtual met mast. A virtual met is useful to help in the decision where to place a real met mast just for a fraction of its price.

Once you decide on where to build the wind farm, Vortex can provide you with data to see which type of turbine would be more suitable. Environmental phenomenons like the temperature, or the type of wind in the area should always be taken into account in order to pick a turbine suitable for your wind farm. 

Once all this data has been gathered, Vortex will provide you with the wind information, so you can estimate how profitable your wind farm would be and know what to expect from your project.
