The ZX 300e wind lidar brings together proven heritage and cutting-edge validation, offering accurate, finance-grade measurements up to 300 metres. Backed by IEC classification and extensive real-world performance verifications, it provides the wind industry with a reliable, bankable tool for today’s largest turbines and most complex terrain.
The global wind industry continues its advances towards ever-larger turbines and taller hub heights. With hub heights now exceeding 150 metres and rotor diameters approaching 200 metres, the ability to measure the wind across the entire rotor span has never been more critical. Accurate and finance-grade measurements remain the cornerstone of energy yield assessments and long-term investment confidence.
In this context, the launch of the ZX 300e marks an important moment for the industry. It has evolved directly from the widely deployed ZX 300 ground-based lidar, itself the first lidar to achieve IEC classification, and benefits from more than 15 years of global field experience.
Furthermore, ZX 300e has not arrived untested: serial production began more than a year ago, with units quietly deployed worldwide either undergoing validation or simply with the evolution sat ready to ‘turn-on’, ensuring that the system is already well established and proven in practice.
This duality, new to market yet proven through heritage and extensive field validation, is a smart approach. It combines the confidence of a mature platform with the advancements required for modern turbine scales, making it both a fresh launch and an assured choice.
