Founded in 2005, Meteolien is an engineering consulting firm specialized in the monitoring of measurement campaigns and producibility studies for large-scale wind farm projects in France and abroad.

With its extensive experience and know-how acquired over the course of its projects and R&D work, Meteolien has developed a wind study methodology based on numerical models. Its experts systematically comply with the most rigorous standards for wind studies (MEASNET, IEC-61400, Dakks, etc.) for each project studied. In France, Meteolien relies on its partner Météo France and its in-depth knowledge of the AROME model.

In parallel with its core activities in large-scale wind energy, the research carried out by Meteolien in recent years has paved the way for a diversification of its activities, with in particular the emergence of two new areas of development:

  • Marine energies: Meteolien analyses wave and current resources, and carries out producibility studies for the development of wave and tidal power projects.
  • Self-consumption wind energy: Meteolien assesses the wind energy potential of its industrial customers' sites, and helps them to implement their self-consumption projects.

With regard to marine energy, the challenge is to decarbonise the electricity mix in the coastal regions where the projects are located. Although still largely unexploited, marine energies offer considerable potential and represent a solution for the future that complements wind, solar and river energy.

In terms of self-consumption, the goal is to provide businesses with greater independence from an electricity market that has been particularly fluctuating recently. This represents a particularly valuable source of financial security for these structures, while at the same time helping to increase the share of renewables in the electricity mix of the region concerned.
