George Xydis
had the opportunity to work in the wind sector together with developers, utilities, constructors, universities, and research institutes. He used to work as a Wind Projects Development Coordinator at Iberdrola Renewables, as a Wind Project Developer at Vector Hellenic Windfarms S.A., and as a Researcher at the Center for Electric Power and Energy, Department of Electrical Engineering at the Technical University of Denmark. He has been since Feb. 2017 with the Center for Energy Technologies, Aarhus University as an Associate Professor and since Jan 2023 as a Full Professor. George was one of the co-founders of VerdeCube and worked as an adjunct faculty member at Johns Hopkins University in Energy Policy and Climate program, teaching 425.624.81 - Wind Energy: Science, Technology and Policy. He has been since Jan. 2024 with the University of the Peloponnese, Dept. of Mechanical Engineering.

He used to collaborate, as a freelancer, with institutes, universities, and SMEs. George’s research interests include Energy Planning, Wind Resource Assessment, Technoeconomics of Renewable Energy Systems, Energy Demand and Plant Factories. He has co-authored more than 140 publications in international journals, more than 50 in international conferences, books, and book chapters, and serves as an Associate Editor in Heliyon Energy, Frontiers in Energy Systems & Policy, Journal of Business Analytics, and Energy & Environment.

So you want to be a writer?

Charles Bukowski, 1920 - 1994

If it doesn’t come bursting out of you in spite of everything, don’t do it.
unless it comes unasked out of your heart and your mind and your mouth and your gut, don’t do it.
if you have to sit for hours staring at your computer screen or hunched over your typewriter searching for words, don’t do it.
if you’re doing it for money or fame, don’t do it.
if you’re doing it because you want women in your bed, don’t do it.
if you have to sit there and rewrite it again and again, don’t do it.
if it’s hard work just thinking about doing it, don’t do it.
if you’re trying to write like somebody else, forget about it.
if you have to wait for it to roar out of you, then wait patiently.
if it never does roar out of you, do something else.
if you first have to read it to your wife or your girlfriend or your boyfriend or your parents or to anybody at all, you’re not ready.
don’t be like so many writers, don’t be like so many thousands of people who call themselves writers, don’t be dull and boring and pretentious, don’t be consumed with self-love.
the libraries of the world have yawned themselves to sleep over your kind. don’t add to that. don’t do it.
unless it comes out of your soul like a rocket, unless being still would drive you to madness or suicide or murder, don’t do it.
unless the sun inside you is burning your gut, don’t do it.
when it is truly time, and if you have been chosen, it will do it by itself and it will keep on doing it until you die or it dies in you.
there is no other way. and there never was...
