ENLIL project was developed and created by Kerem. He is a civil engineer who can create new products as a result of his interdisciplinary education.

In addition to creating technology for today, Kerem aims to use his own technology to influence the future. While prioritizing environmental issues and moral principles above all else, it also aims to build a supportive system that young people can emulate.
Kerem developed his project by realizing his desire to create technology that he had heard since childhood. Although the business concept was new, it was insufficient. Thanks to Kerem's innovative method to make wind turbine blades 10 times faster and cheaper than existing technologies, the world's first mass-produced wind turbine blades were produced.
Kerem, who received numerous awards on a global scale and was included in the Forbes 30 Under 30 Europe 2020 list many times in the field of Manufacturing & Industry, entered many important science and business lists. According to Kerem, using renewable energy is a duty, not a luxury.
