Xodus Boston office appoints renewables Vice President

Alexander Thillerup

Alexander Thillerup joins Xodus from Aegir Wind Solutions, where he was Director of Project Management. With more than 15 years’ experience in the renewables industry across Europe and Australia, he has managed several industry-leading projects for developers, including the concept development of the 6 MW tower for Equinor’s Hywind Scotland turbines.

“This is a fantastic opportunity as we grow our operations in Boston,” Mr Thillerup said. “Xodus has gained a strong reputation for its work in offshore renewables around the world and I am excited to lead the team as we look to establish ourselves in the North American market.

“Through our international knowledge and experience, we will be looking at how we can support the industry-wide challenge of supply chain in the US and enable it to grow in a sustainable way. We are seeing a lot of new interest and want to partner with tier-one contractors to facilitate getting the first large-scale projects constructed. Bringing together local supply chain, academia and economic development agencies will enable exciting technology to be adopted and plans progressed for offshore wind development.”

Jamie MacDonald

Mr Thillerup will be supported by Jamie MacDonald, who is relocating from Xodus’ headquarters in Aberdeen, UK to take up the position of Director of Operations. He will be responsible for helping shape and grow the business in terms of technical strength, commercial performance, and brand awareness across North America.
