The present invention provides wind guiding vane apparatus for mitigating a detrimental influence of cross winds flowing in the vicinity of an air-cooled condenser (ACC) and through one or more fans, positioned in lateral direction of the ACC, to which ambient air is directed and discharged to the atmosphere after cooling condenser tubes of the ACC, comprising one or more stationary wind guiding vanes positioned along at least a portion of an air flow streamline and below a plurality of condenser tubes of the ACC, wherein said one or more wind guiding vanes are configured to redirect air flow during windy conditions towards a portion of said plurality of condenser tubes and at least one of the fans at such an angle that significantly deviates from perpendicular, fairly horizontal inflow. The one or more wind guiding vanes are also suitable to maintain a nominal flow rate of air during quiescent wind conditions.
