Really proud to be part of this new 🌊 (floating) wind setup, which is a great improvement to our previous wind setup 💨⚙️ Some facts 📌 • The wind area increased from 20m² to 62m² 📈 • The rotor diameter at scale increased from 3.3m to 6m, so we can test a 22MW wind turbine at scale 1:47 • Better wind quality and the ability to model wind shear 🌬️📊 With this BlueLabs setup, we can support the next generation of wind farm developments 🌍
