Wind farm

Recognised for our expertise in managing acoustic challenges linked to wind energy projects, our acoustics consultancy supports the securing and long‑term viability of wind farm developments and operations. We assist clients in addressing noise‑related constraints throughout the project lifecycle, from initial planning to operation.

Our support contributes to safeguarding projects and their financing, whether for new developments, repowering initiatives or the expansion of existing wind farms.

Ensuring the perfect alignment of production capacity with regulatory compliance

As a wind farm developer or operator, having access to accurate and reliable noise studies is an essential part of building trust-based relationships with local authorities and residents, optimising wind farm operation and reassuring investors.

Our acoustic consultancy provides that help and support at every stage of your projects. Our acousticians address the features specific to each project, and advise you on how best to optimise it.

Our clients receive the benefit of all our expertise at every key design stage.

High-reliability measurement campaigns

We have a broad range of equipment that includes more than 60 systems that are 100% connected and entirely dedicated to your projects.

This means we can offer you:

Responsiveness and flexibility to align with your scheduling constraints
Real-time viewing of measured data and active monitoring of the campaign progress: we limit the number of measurements to those that are strictly necessary, and minimise generating losses where regulatory controls apply
Risk-free measurement campaigns: we are alerted immediately of any issues, and all the data we generate are stored in real time on dedicated secure servers as the measurement campaign progresses

Constantly evolving methodologies

Our experts have studied more than 500 wind farm projects, and have unrivalled expertise in this market. But because every project is unique, we are constantly challenging our own methodologies and adapting our practices to align with your realities; a process that results in solutions like our patented Eolesense system.
We work closely with operators and developers on inventing the methods of tomorrow. We are pioneers in conducting repowering project acoustic impact studies and ensuring their acceptance.
Our experts are members of the AFNOR S30J working group and proactive contributors to influencing the forward development of our profession through scientific publications and the presentations they make at international conferences, such as Wind Turbine Noise, the FEE Symposium and ICSV.

In practice:

We are fully committed to the results of our analyses and equally committed to providing you with robust and indisputable study results.
We facilitate communication with third parties, and provide the necessary support, responsiveness and answers as your documentation progresses through the official channels.
For each of our assignments, we offer a non-time-limited responsive After-Sales Service which involves responding to any comments and/or questions the local authority may have when reading and analysing your acoustic survey documentation.

We do more than just noise, vibration and air quality measurements

Sixense also offers cross-disciplinary expertise in structural engineering, special materials and coatings, and geophysics to wind farm developers and operators.

This means you have a single point of contact for all your soil, structure and environmental issues:

Soil studies
Structural studies and optimisation of existing structures
Studies related to transport and exceptional loads
Corrosion prevention
Concrete preservation
Inspections
Incident diagnosis
etc.
