This surfboard is turbine made. We're excited to have partnered with professional surfer Josh Kerr and his surfboard brand Draft Surf to create the world’s first #surfboards made from a retired #windturbine blade. Crafted from a decommissioned blade from ACCIONA Energy’s Waubra wind farm in Victoria, an initial range of ten prototype boards have been made as part of our #TurbineMade initiative, which was launched in February as Australia’s first initiative dedicated to exploring innovative ways to transform decommissioned wind turbine blades into new materials and products. It represents the next step in our efforts to advance #circulareconomy in the #renewableenergy sector in Australia. Find out more here: https://lnkd.in/dvWt8-Er

Such an innovative way to repurpose decommissioned wind turbine blades! It’s inspiring to see how the #TurbineMade initiative is advancing the circular economy in the renewable energy sector. Kudos to Josh Kerr and Draft Surf for leading the way with these unique surfboards. Can’t wait to see how this concept continues to grow!
