Land surveying firm Landpoint is providing additional support services across Texas, New Mexico, and Colorado to help meet the increased demand of wind and solar energy development projects.
With interest in renewable energy on the rise, the company has seen expansion in both solar and wind energy development across the nation. In 2015, according to the Solar Energy Industries Association, solar energy accounted for 40 percent of all new energy producing capacity to come online. Wind energy development is also growing in leaps and bounds as the fastest growing source of electricity in the world today, according to the Wind Energy Foundation.
While clean energy projects like wind and solar farms have been on the rise and will continue to grow thanks to the recent subsidies extension for clean energy, Landpoint has been helping with wind and solar projects for years. The land surveying and aerial data collection firm has combined decades of experience in meeting the unique challenges involved with wind and solar energy surveys – namely, location.
“The recent tax breaks and increasing affordability of alternative energy sources like wind and solar, mean that we expect to see an unprecedented growth in these kinds of projects. Landpoint is proud to be a part of this initiative by offering fast, accurate surveys from a team of experienced and licensed professionals” says Landpoint’s Vice President, Chad Souter.
It is common for both solar and wind energy projects to require enormous tracts of land and each requires specific weather conditions to produce optimal results. Landpoint uses cutting-edge surveying equipment like unmanned aerial vehicles and (UAVs) and 3D laser scanning to ensure that their customers get the most accurate data as quickly as possible.
Landpoint offers its full range of geomatics services across the states of Texas, New Mexico, and Colorado for the alternative energy sector.
