These include:
- A Wind turbine testing laboratory that includes a laboratory for testing 25m wind turbine blades
- A Station for Wind turbine testing
- A Hybrid wind diesel systems facility
- A Network of 100 stations for measuring wind characteristics
The wind systems laboratories offer the following services:
- Measurement of wind turbines testing operational characteristics (power curve measurements, power quality measurements, noise levels).
- Wind turbine fatigue testing (aerodynamic and mechanical loads)
- Wind turbine blade testing (static, fatigue and dynamic testing)
- Anemometer calibration
- Wind Energy Resource assessment
- Wind-potential estimation over complex terrain by means of a numerical tool developed inhouse for micrositing
- Analysis and design of horizontal axis of wind turbines by means of an aeroelastic simulator developed inhouse (code named ALKYONE)
- Hybrid wind - diesel systems laboratory services (fuel saving, system stability etc.)
