Wind Engineering, Energy and Environment Research Institute (WindEEE RI)
Organizational focus: The Wind Engineering, Energy and Environment Research Institute (WINDEEE RI) focuses on enabling wind-related research and industry-academic partnership opportunities.
Who they are: Based at Western University, WindEEE RI was established in 2011 as a recognition of opportunities in wind research at the three-dimensional testing chamber the WindEEE Dome. The facility has since been paired with the Boundary Layer Wind Tunnel Laboratory and the 3LP facility.
What they offer: WindEEE RI’s areas of research target wind engineering, energy and the environment. Its research topics include the impact of unusual wind systems (such as tornadoes) on buildings and structures, the optimization of wind farms and wind turbines, physical modelling of wind flow over rough surfaces, topography and forestry, air quality, and wind-driven rain and snow.
