Agenda & News - FLOAWER

ESR at POLIMI, Italy for the next 3 years, Kutay started his work mid-September. He will focus on "Integrated design and LCOE minimization of horizontal and vertical axis wind turbines".

Xiaoming, second ESR of NTNU, embarked in the FLOAWER project in September. He's dedicating his time and work around "High-fidelity determination of wave load and load effects for floating WT hulls subjected to severe wave conditions" for the next 36 months.

ESR at NTNU, Norway for the next 3 years, Eva started her work early August. She will focus on "Advanced design and optimized cost of mooring systems".

Following the announcement of the 2nd call for applicants, Centrale Nantes opens the ESR5 position for application, until the 1st of July.

Craig White, second ESR to start his PhD, embarked in the FLOAWER project in May. He's dedicating his time and work around "System design to minimize the LCOE of Floating Offshore Wind" at WavEC, Portugal.

FLOAWER opens a 2nd call for Applicants and is looking for 1 PhD student. The ESR position (ESR2) is located at University of Stuttgart.

Daniel Hatfield is the first ESR who started his PhD work within our project.Since the beginning of April he's dedicating his time and work around "Offshore wind resource at deep sea applying satellite data and numerical modelling" in DTU, Denmark.

On March 3 and 4, Centrale Nantes hosted the first FLOAWER event. Gathering around 40 people, it was the perfect opportunity to meet all the different partners of the project.

The MSCA ITN project FLOAWER just started and it's already time to announce its first major event. In fact on Wednesday 4 March, the ESR recruitment event will take place at Centrale Nantes, France.

FLOAting Wind Energy netwoRk (FLOAWER) is an Innovative Training Network (ITN), a European project that brings together leading academics and industry leaders in the offshore wind industry, and floating wind turbines in particular. Its goal is to strengthen the leadership and competitiveness of this industry in Europe.

Recently graduated from a Master's degree in European projects management, Florent has travelled Europe throughout his studies improving his language skills. Thanks to the diversity of his curriculum, he had the chance to broader his academic and professional experiences which makes him a flexible and open-minded young professional.

The FLOAting Wind Energy netwoRk (FLOAWER) is primarily designed to train researchers in the required multi-disciplinary engineering fields to better develop Floating Offshore Wind technologies under the constraint of Levelized Cost Of Energy minimization.

The University College Cork, Ireland, is opening its ESR6 position to applications. Apply until July 31 to join our project.
