Brazil is a magnificent country with unprecedented opportunities for wind energy. On land, the wind powers a growing number of wind turbines, increasing the share of renewables in the country’s total energy output. On the water, the wind powered the six members of Van Oord’s kite-surfing team. Their 800-kilometre-long journey along the spectacular Brazilian coastline took them from Fortaleza to São LuÃs.
