Alessandro Croce holds a Ph.D. in Aerospace Engineering from the Politecnico di Milano in Italy in 2004, became assistant professor in 2011 and is now Associate Professor of Flight Mechanics at the Department of Aerospace Science and Technology of the PoliMI. Prof. Croce works in the area of multibody-aeroelastic modelling and simulation of wind turbines and rotorcraft systems, rotorcraft flight mechanics, optimal control theory and its applications. His areas of expertise also include wind turbine design, multidisciplinary optimization of rotor systems, wind turbine active and passive load alleviations and wind tunnel testing. On these topics he has co-authored about 100 publications in peer-reviewed international journal papers, book chapters and conference proceedings. He is coordinating the POLI-Wind Laboratory (i.e. the wind energy laboratory within the Aerospace Department) and is representative of Politecnico di Milano within the European Academy of Wind Energy (EAWE).

Andrea Hahmann is a senior scientist in the Resource Assessment and Meteorology group of the Department of Wind and Energy Systems at the Danish Technical University (DTU Wind Energy). She started her studies at the University of Sao Paulo, Brazil, and obtained her Ph.D. in Meteorology from the University of Utah. She has worked with atmospheric models for nearly 30 years. Before coming to the wind energy field, she worked at the University of Arizona and then at the National Center for Atmospheric Research. She now works on atmospheric modeling applied to wind energy resource assessment and the effect of climate change on renewable energy resources. She was a lead author of the IPCC AR6 Working Group III report.
