Slow Chat II

Saul Griffith was founder and president of Makani. And Makani attracted Dr. Fort Felker, who was previously Director, National Wind Technology Center, National Renewable Energy Laboratory, as you know, so the wind energy experts’ expert. And you and Paul Gipe had no effect on his change of job. Take a look at his LinkedIn page: https://www.linkedin.com/in/fort-felker-b0b92612/details/experience/.

You’ll notice that he puts a lot of emphasis on Makani’s professional experience, both in the job titles and in the illustrations.

Now you’ll have to wait a long time for people in the wind energy industry to join an AWE company.

That AWE’s current cycle is in a downward phase leaves little doubt. That’s not to say that AWE won’t really be deployed one day, but it won’t be tomorrow, or in 2030. It will be much later (if this happens), with projects for which we have no idea of the technology involved.
