Andrew Harrison, Fulbright Scholar

A huge congratulations to Andrew Harrison from everyone at the OESL lab.  Andrew was awarded a Fulbright grant to study wind power generation and its impact on the local population in Denmark.  His work will be used to mitigate the effects of turbines on the people and environment close to them.

Also, thanks for your work here at the lab.  Andrew developed the first flow cell battery prototype for us.

We can say we knew you when you were still drawing on your head…
