Le projet

As part of this project, Nergica has validated monitoring software designed to ensure that light beacons function correctly and that light intensity is modulated according to the horizontal visibility measured by two sensors.

This project involved replacing 6 beacons on two weather towers, relocating a horizontal visibility detector and installing an electrical box. In addition, the original beacon on a wind turbine was replaced, and another horizontal visibility detector was installed and connected in Nergica's nacelle electrical box.

Highlights

The project has generated a number of tangible benefits, of which the following are the key points.

  • Installation of 7 light beacons, 2 horizontal visibility detectors and 3 electrical boxes on 3 Nergica infrastructures.

  • Modulation of light intensity according to measured horizontal visibility and monitoring of LIDSTM system operating status.

  • Media coverage: Le Pharillon, Radio-Canada, Télé-Gaspé
