Anotation

IEC TS 61400-50-4:2025 describe procedures and methods which ensure that wind measurements using floating wind lidar systems are carried out and reported consistently and according to best practice. This document does not prescribe the purpose or use case of the wind measurements. However, as this document forms part of the IEC 61400 series of standards and technical specifications, it is anticipated that the wind measurements will be used in relation to some form of wind energy testing or resource assessment. The scope of this document is limited to vertically profiling wind lidar devices in or on buoys. This document aims to be applicable to any type and make of floating wind lidar system. The method and requirements provided in this document are independent of the model and type and of the measurement principle and allow application to new types of floating wind lidar systems as these become available. This part of IEC 61400 aims to describe wind measurements using floating wind lidar with sufficient quality for the use case of wind resource assessment. Readers of this document can consider other use cases that can have other specific requirements.
