Having successfully completed a seven-point assessment programme, SgurrEnergy, a Wood Group company, is now part of the MEASNET Power Performance Expert Group. The group organises and performs inter-comparison tests in order to achieve a unified understanding of the IEC 61400-12-1 standard. It also facilitates continuous exchange between experts in the field of wind turbine power performance measurements.

SgurrEnergy’s Power Performance Manager, Florin Pintilie, said: “SgurrEnergy has been accredited by UKAS for wind turbine power performance measurement since 2011, with a significant track record of successfully carried out power curve tests on a wide range of wind turbine models.”
