Applications of Metrological Measurement in Wind Power Generation

Development of green energy is the best key for solving environmental problems. The applications of wind force are the most skillful technologies today, which have been as important direction of green energy in highly developed country. Until now the technical development of wind force already achieves the skillful technique of application, and China becomes another leader in this field. Flexibility of modern wind turbine construction becomes more emphasized with the increase in wind turbine size, therefore even bigger vibrational amplitudes. Besides, the supervision blank of the quality of wind power plant by the authority is the reason why manufacture corporation and construction department neglect the quality control. These aspects include: rotor design, improved bearing material and installation, estimation and reduction of frictional effects, improvement in safety and remote monitoring. All of these will require many metrology issues to be addressed.
