Ventus Group

Headquartered in Austria, Ventus Group also has offices in Denmark, UK, Poland, Canada and India. The company offers end-to-end wind turbine optimization solutions within the type approval design envelope for wind turbine performance, deploying a multitude of patented innovative technologies. Its primary focus is wind turbine rotor efficiency, delivering aerodynamic, efficient and balanced rotors, the lack of which are the common cause for damaging increased loads and underperforming turbines. Using its extensive industry experience, products and services of the Ventus Group capture measurements, analyses data and compiles comprehensive reports. Wind turbine rotor efficiency has our primary focus, because rotor blade aerodynamic inefficiency and unbalance is a common, well known and a major reason for turbines’ and wind farms' underperformance and load increase. We offer different services mainly based on Ventus patents: 1. Ventus LiDAR technology services for reducing loads (risk and costs) and improve performance – here Ventus is a significant player since 2011 with a huge track record on different turbine types. We are measuring in front of the rotor to get: • Average yaw misalignment identification, correction and verification of result • Turbulence verification for better wind sector management • Power curve measurement for verification and better cut in / cut out / re-cut in wind speed. Ventus static and dynamic blade relative pitch measurement and adjustment services for optimal rotor aerodynamic efficiency and minimum loads: • Static relative blade pitch misalignment measurement service • Dynamic relative blade pitch misalignment measurement and correction service • Relative difference in blade aerodynamic efficiency and correction service 3. Ventus Blade damage inspection service with or without image processing. Ventus Insurance solutions for Wind Industry including Extended Warranty on main components
