In the Frankenhöhe project, we implemented a new combination sensor that plays a crucial role in both bat protection shutdowns and the optimization of wind turbine operations. This innovative sensor integrates multiple measurement methods and allows us to control turbines more efficiently, ensure species protection, and maximize energy production at the same time.

The New Combination Sensor

This new sensor marks a significant technological advancement by capturing all relevant environmental factors and replacing previous sensors for brightness, rainfall, temperature, and humidity. With this comprehensive solution, we can manage turbine shutdowns with even greater precision and effectiveness—while minimizing unnecessary interruptions in operation.
