| 摘要： | Shell has invested $10 million in Avondale Global Gateway tenant Gulf Wind Technology to create the Shell Gulf Wind Technology Accelerator with the goal of developing, testing and deploying a new type of wind turbine designed specifically for the Gulf of Mexico. The collaboration will combine research and development with technology-focused education and workforce development specific to the Gulf region. "Wind resources in the Gulf region are more variable than what you find on the East Coast, where most of U.S. offshore wind development activity is currently happening," said James Martin, CEO of Gulf Wind Technology. "Seasonal hurricane conditions and moderate average wind speeds create a situation that requires a novel approach to the application of technology and the framework in which it is both developed and demonstrated. The program has been specifically created to address and fulfill this need and enable next steps for the region and for the industry." The accelerator is the second major investment in future energy production in Louisiana in less than a year. Just last June, Shell announced a $27.5 million investment to establish the LSU Insti- tute for Energy Innovation and support construction of LSU's Our Lady of the Lake Interdisciplinary Science Building. |
