Country/Territory Netherlands Date 23/05/23 Description Dr. Axelle Viré has been appointed Full Professor of Floating Wind Energy. In her new position Prof. Viré will help grow TU Delft’s activities in the field of floating wind energy. An essential field, according to Viré, as “about eighty percent of the offshore wind resource is located in water depths inaccessible for conventional wind turbines.” Axelle Viré also chairs the faculty Personnel Committee, she’s the faculty Diversity Officer, and a member of the TU Delft wide energy transition accelerator team.

A floating wind turbine prototype has generated its first 1kWh of power off the coast of Spain's Canary Islands, marking a major milestone in its makers' goals to begin manufacturing their novel design at scale. Not to mention, it's one of the first deployed floating turbines with a tension leg platform (TLP), an innovation that drastically reduces damage to sea floors.Producer/Author Andrew Paul Persons A.C.
