Experts in Providing Solar Energy Measurement Solutions

 

We are a leading company in measuring solar radiation and atmospheric properties. Our passion for precision has led to the development of a large range of high quality instruments: from all weather radiometers to complete measurement systems.

The sun provides 99.98% of the energy for our planet (the rest is geothermal) and is responsible, directly or indirectly, for the existence of life on Earth. The solar radiation reaching the ground is the key factor in determining the output of a solar energy plant, and this is heavily influenced by environmental and weather parameters.

OTT HydroMet’s Kipp & Zonen and Lufft have extensive knowledge and expertise in providing measurement solutions for these environmental and weather parameters. We promise our customers guaranteed performance and quality in various markets: Meteorology, Climatology, Hydrology, Industry, Renewable Energy, Agriculture and Public Health.

We hope you will join our passion for precision.
