NRG Systems was founded in 1982 and their global headquarters is located in USA. NRG Systems manufactures wind measurement and turbine control equipment. They supply products to more than 135 countries, including India. I met their representatives at the recently concluded Wind Power India 2012 exhibition.
Some products manufactured by NRG Systems include,
* Grand Symphonie - An integrated system with sensors and other components required for wind resource assessment. A single system can connect, collect and store data from up to 50 sensors.
* Tilt-up Towers - To get the sensors (up to 80 meters height) to measure the wind easily. Tilt up towers have simple installation and do not require cranes, drills or concrete foundations, to erect.
* Data Loggers - To record wind speed & direction and monitor the same using Internet/cell phone networks, etc.
* Sensors - Include anemometer (to record wind speeds), wind direction vane, ultrasonic wind sensor (wind speed and direction for turbine control), relative humidity sensor, temperature sensor, pyranometer (solar radiation sensor), barometric pressure sensor, rain gauge tipping bucket, etc.
* Lidar remote sensor - For wind resource assessment and performance monitoring. Lidar's WINDCUBE, for example, can be used for various on-shore/off-shore wind farm applications from project siting to performance monitoring.
* Solar assessment systems - Integrated systems to measure solar radiation, temperature, wind direction/speed, precipitation and other factors for siting solar power plants. These systems are used in conjunction with satellite data in order to improve the accuracy of measurements.
* Accessories - Grounding kits, ginpoles, winches, batteries, logger accessories, cables for sensors, mounting booms, etc.
