Wind turbine rotor optimization via LiDAR and aerodynamic analysis
Ventus Group builds hardware and software for wind turbine performance optimization, with a focus on rotor blade aerodynamics and load reduction. The tech stack—Embedded C/C++, Python, ARM, LiDAR, and drone platforms (PX4, Ardupilot)—reflects a hardware-first engineering operation deploying sensors and UAVs into field environments. Current projects center on sensor installations, UAV payload prototyping, and a training academy, signaling a shift from pure consulting toward productized measurement services and capability building.
Notable leadership hires: Academy Head
Ventus Group, founded in 2015 and headquartered in Vienna, delivers wind turbine optimization services across onshore and offshore installations. The company operates offices in Austria, Denmark, the UK, Poland, Canada, and India. Core offerings include LiDAR-based rotor monitoring, blade pitch measurement and adjustment, and wind farm performance analysis—all designed to operate within turbine type-approval envelopes. The organization combines embedded systems engineering with field deployment expertise, supported by an emerging training function (Ventus Academy) to scale technical knowledge.
