What is Wind Lidar Market?
Wind LIDAR is the technique to measure wind speed and direction with low noise laser light. The LIDAR emits 5 to 6 beams which forms cone of 100 meters and spreads 30° to measure the wind vectors. These measurements are taken with 1 Hz frequency. The Wind LIDAR is used in feed forwards control systems which are used for reducing the turbine load. It comes with various features such as reliable with industrial fibre laser design accurate measurements and low noise as well as high power.
The market study is being classified, by Application (Wind industry, Weather and climate, Air quality ad industrial risk, Wind cube vertical profiler, Scanning wind cube and Others) and major geographies with country level break-up.
Hexagon AB (Sweden), Velodyne Lidar (United States), Sick AG (Germany), Topcon Positioning Systems, Inc. (United States), Trimble Inc. (United States), RIEGL Laser Measurement Systems GmbH (Austria), Optech (Canada), Leosphere (France), ZephIR (Italy) and Leosphere (France) are some of the key players profiled in the study. Additionally, the Players which are also part of the research are Lockheed Martin (United States), Avent (United States) and Mitsubishi Electric (Japan).
The market of Wind LiDAR is fragmented, due to availability of many large and small players in the market. These players try to gain a competitive edge in the market through product and technology launch, strategic partnership, acquisition, expansion, and collaboration. Research Analyst at AMA predicts that United States Players will contribute to the maximum growth of Global Wind Lidar market throughout the predicted period.
