Quebec, Quebec, Canada
André Bégin-Drolet is a full professor of mechanical engineering at Université Laval in Canada. His research, in the wind energy sector, focuses toward improving wind power production in cold climate where atmospheric icing is prevalent. His research led him to the design of a patented smart sensor, the Meteorological Conditions Monitoring Station (MCMS), adapted to measure meteorological conditions in cold and icy environment. Moreover, he is very interested in developing methods to improve the production of wind energy in icing conditions using this novel instrument. Wind is also part of his hobbies as he is an active racing sailor who loves to perform in both inshore and offshore regattas.
