A discussion about lighting effects at wind farms with Vaisala’s Brooke Pearson

By Michelle Froese | February 6, 2019

In this WindTalk podcast, we discuss lightning and its potential impact and effect on wind turbines with Vaisaila‘s Brooke Pearson. Brooke has more than 30 years of experience working in the field of meteorology and is currently Vaisaila’s Lightning Global Solutions Manager.

Our conversation touches on this and more.
