DATA COLLECTED AT THE GASP\u00c9, QU\u00c9BEC SITE CONFIRMS LIDSTM TECHNOLOGY EFFECTIVELY DIMS THE LIGHTS ON WIND FARMS DURING CLEAR NIGHTS.\u00a0<\/span><\/strong><\/h2><p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\"><strong>Coteau-du-Lac, May 10, 2017<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 Technostrobe is proud to present the initial results of its new solution called LIDSTM (Lighting Intensity Dimming Solution). This new technology, the first of its kind in North America, was installed in Gasp\u00e9 in December 2015, after obtaining an exemption permit from Transport Canada.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">The data collected reveals that the intensity of the lights can effectively and safely be adjusted to the surrounding visibility present at wind farms. During the trial, the visibility was measured as being greater than 10 km, 83% of the time, thereby allowing the LIDSTM system to dim the lights by 90%.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">These findings show that LIDSTM technology met the expectations set out at the beginning of the trial. Since clear nights and great visibility are the norm, the intensity of the lights is far to bright, most of the time. Adjusting the intensity level of the lights according to the surrounding visibility significantly mitigates the impact of the beacons on local communities.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Because wind farms have structures that can represent a potential hazard to air navigation, they must be equipped with obstruction lighting. LIDSTM Technology now minimizes the impact on the night sky for local community\u2019s and offers pilots the necessary visual warning so that they can fly safely around the wind farm.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p class=\"p1\">\u00a0<\/p><p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\"><strong>Source :<\/strong><\/span><\/p><p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Francis Lacombe, Vice-President\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\"><span id=\"cloake7b952d777d288a917e50003c707922f\"><a href=\"mailto:Francis.lacombe@technostrobe.com\">Francis.lacombe@technostrobe.com<\/a><\/span><\/span><\/p><div class=\"a2a_kit a2a_kit_size_32 a2a_default_style\" data-a2a-icon-color=\"#555555\">\u00a0<\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t<\/section>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Data collected at the Gasp\u00e9, Qu\u00e9bec site confirms LIDSTM Technology effectively dims the lights on wind farms during clear nights. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":13458,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-13457","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v22.5 -
