Technical Safeguarding and Wind Turbines
Wind turbines are visible to radar and, when positioned in close proximity to sensitive ATC areas, they can cause a safety problem for ANSPs and Airport Operators. Osprey is a leading company in the evaluation and mitigation of such impact.
We have been at the forefront of the development of cutting-edge mitigation technologies, which have included writing Safety Cases, and have provided technical advisory assistance to the UK Government on the subject. Analysis is carried out by experienced Air Traffic Controllers who understand the impact and what may or may not be tolerable.
Our skills include:
- Aviation Impact Assessment;
- Mitigation Analysis;
- Requirements Development;
- System Safety Cases;
- Wind Farm Safeguarding Training.
Pragmatic approach for all clients
At Osprey we value pragmatism. We do not subscribe to a one-size-fits-all approach or to the stubborn application of standard methodologies. Instead, we try to understand our clients’ needs in terms of their own processes and the expectation of the relevant regulator and other key stakeholders.
If the project is a modification to an established system where the risks are well understood, we will adopt a simple process. If the project is blue-sky, we will adopt a formal output-oriented approach and draw on best practice.
