Europe’s energy system is undergoing a rapid transformation, giving rise to new applications that are increasingly combining different climate-friendly technologies.

The energy transition has made the European energy supply cheaper and more secure. However, the market value of solar and wind power is under increasing pressure from low electricity prices, complicating financing. 

METICE converts CW Lidar turbulence data into cup-equivalent values, bridging the gap between Lidar and traditional anemometry and addressing longstanding industry challenges. Backed by machine-learning, multi-site training and extensive validation, METICE delivers trusted, turbine OEM-ready turbulence intensity for energy yield load assessment needs.

Technostrobe is excited to announce, for the fifth year, the winner of its photo competition, held in collaboration with Windtech International. This year, Gareth Rowland won the 2025 contest with his stunning photograph of wind turbines installed at the Nordsee Ost offshore wind farm during stormy weather with lightning in the cloudy sky.

In addition to a check for $500, Technostrobe will make a $500 donation in Mr. Rowland’s name to 4 Louis, a UK charity that works across the country to support anyone affected by miscarriage, stillbirth and the death of a baby or child.

Technostrobe thanks everyone who sent photos thus make it possible to discover the tremendous visual potential of the wind industry. We are so proud of this contest that we have decided to renew our support for a 6th year.

Good luck to all who wish to participate!

In today's quest for accurate weather predictions, understanding wind speed and direction is crucial. While advanced technologies like LIDAR and SODAR are gaining popularity, traditional cup anemometers and windvanes still offer significant benefits, especially in certain geographical areas. For over 50 years, Vector Instruments has been manufacturing these reliable weather sensors.

Vaisala is redefining the standard for wind resource assessment. The new Vaisala WindCube® 2.1 XP measures up to 400 meters and is the only wind lidar on the market IEC classified up to 200 meters — the critical rotor sweep height for utility-scale wind turbines.

The ZX 300e wind Lidar from ZX Lidars sets a new global standard in wind measurement. It’s the first and only ground-based wind Lidar to achieve IEC classification from 21 m to 200 m, and with best-in-class 0% standard uncertainty. Validated through extensive independent testing around the world, ZX 300e consistently delivers trusted and reliable wind data — even in the most challenging sites. Building on 15 years of development and proven field performance of the ZX 300, this latest evolution provides developers, consultants, and investors the confidence to continue measuring the wind with ZX.
