Power


During this new episode of our Founder Series, we sat down with Jon

Salazar Founder and CEO at Gazelle Wind Power. Gazelle has developed a

unique and innovative Hybrid Floating Platform with high stability and

attenuated pitch, designed and engineered by leading expert naval

engineers. The company is on a mission to enable the power of wind for

the globe and accelerate the worldwide opportunity for deep-water

offshore wind energy.


I was excited to have Jon on the show and learn the ins and outs of the

fast-growing offshore wind energy industry and how Gazelle has the

potential to play a key role in tackling the cost and engineering

challenges of deep-water floating wind turbines to unleash the

industry's full potential.


During this episode, you will learn about the industry and its potential

for growth. What needs to happen to accelerate the development of the

sector? Then we will cover with Jon the initial challenges in

developing the solution Gazelle engineered from lab scale to pilot

project. Finally, we will dive into their business model, their path to

scale their solutions, and how you can get involved in the project.
