 (Oldenburg, ) ProfEC Ventus, a leading international technical consultancy and accredited testing laboratory and calibration laboratory, is pleased to announce its official acceptance as a MEASNET Associated Member for Site Assessment Services according to MEASNET Procedure “Evaluation of Site-Specific Wind Conditions“ in its most recent version. This prestigious recognition marks a significant extension of the company’s existing MEASNET membership, which has historically focused on world-class wind sensor calibration.

MEASNET (International Network of Wind Energy Measurement Institutes) is the world’s most prominent network of wind energy institutes, dedicated to ensuring the highest levels of quality and comparability in wind energy measurements and evaluations. By attaining this associated membership for Site Assessment, ProfEC Ventus reinforces its position as a leading technical authority, delivering bankable data that meets the most stringent international requirements.

"The expansion of our MEASNET membership is a natural progression for ProfEC Ventus. Having served the industry for years with MEASNET-recognised sensor calibrations, we are now proud to bring that same level of technical rigour and international standardisation to our Site Assessment services. This ensures our clients benefit from a seamless, high-fidelity data chain that is globally recognised by investors and financial institutions." - Mathias Hoelzer, Managing Director.

The inclusion of Site Assessment under the MEASNET umbrella provides ProfEC Ventus’s clients with a distinct competitive advantage. It guarantees that wind resource evaluations, energy yield assessments, and site suitability studies are performed according to the latest MEASNET procedures and quality evaluation programmes. This level of accreditation is often a prerequisite for large-scale project financing, as it directly reduces technical uncertainty and risk premiums for developers and lenders alike.

This milestone complements ProfEC Ventus’s extensive portfolio of ISO/IEC 17025 accreditations and further expands the extent of its service offerings. As the global wind industry moves towards more complex sites and larger turbines, the demand for high-accuracy site assessments has never been greater. ProfEC Ventus remains at the forefront of this transition, providing the precision required to drive the renewable energy sector forward with absolute technical certainty.
