Construction on the 30 MW EFGL project in France is due to start soon. Principle Power has been at the forefront of floating offshore wind development worldwide, and in particular in Europe: the company has deployed its WindFloat® floating platform in Portugal, on the 25 MW WindFloat Atlantic project, and in Scotland, on the 50 MW Kincardine wind farm. As the pressure mounts in Europe – and worldwide, for that matter – to achieve the Paris Agreements’ clean energy goals, and as recent events have highlighted the importance of energy independence, I’m excited to take our technology to next level and into utility-scale projects in Europe.” "Since Principle Power was founded in 2007, we have proven the effectiveness of our WindFloat® technology in several pre-commercial projects in Europe, making it the floating foundation of choice for developers around the world. I share this distinction with the entire Principle Power team who worked hard to deliver projects such as the Kincardine wind farm through a pandemic and related hardships”, Aaron said.
“I’m honored to be featured in the 2022 European Power List together with so many other innovators and industry leaders. The A Word About Wind-published European Power List highlights individuals that have been playing a key role in making sure that the industry emerges stronger from its current challenges, working towards the ambitious European energy transition and net-zero goals.Īaron receives this nomination in recognition of his work leading the global expansion of California-headquartered floating specialist Principle Power and championing the development of floating wind in Europe.
Aaron Smith, Principle Power’s Chief Commercial Officer, has been named as one of the most influential people in the European wind sector.
