Wind measuring masts
- Design of guyed masts:
o Tubular from 10m to 72m
o Aluminium lattice from 2m to 100m
- Transport of the masts to the sites
- Installation of masts
- Dismantling of masts
- Controlled destruction of masts at the end of their life
- Masts available for hire or sale

Installation
Thanks to our experience, we can assist you in the choice of a mast and its positioning adapted to your project.
The administrative authorisations with the local and national institutions are entirely managed by GenWind.
Our experienced and fully equipped teams install the masts by safely tilting them up avoiding any works at heights and without using any concrete foundation.
The installation of the measuring equipment complies with the IEC 61400-12 standard.
Rental - Purchase
We propose different solutions depending on the expected duration of the measurement campaign and your logistical constraints:
- Rental: Flexibility and maximum service, rental allows you to free yourself from all the constraints linked to a measurement campaign (insurance, logistics, maintenance, storage, etc.)
- Sale: This solution is suitable for long-term measurement campaigns. GenWind offers storage solutions in the north of France.
Instrumentation
On the quality of the instrument depends the quality of the measurement.
We offer a wide range of instrumentation possibilities adapted to your project: anemometer, wind vane, barometer, thermometer, hydrometer…
All our measurements are recorded by our datalogger and then transmitted via GPRS, GSM or Ethernet to our secure server.
We can install different sensors according to your requests and different dataloggers according to your preferences.
