"Sky-High Employment: Wind Turbine Technician Jobs to Grow 45%" In the United States, the job market for wind turbine service technicians is set to experience a significant surge, with an expected growth of 45% by the year 2033. This boom is largely due to the increasing focus on renewable energy sources, prompting wind farm manufacturers and operators to ramp up their training and recruitment efforts. These technicians, who often do not need a college degree, can earn around $80,000 annually. The role, however, demands a readiness to travel widely, work in harsh weather conditions, and carry equipment weighing over 20 kilograms up steep ladders. Despite challenges in the offshore wind turbine sector due to supply chain issues, onshore wind farms are flourishing. The majority of the U.S.'s $16.4 billion wind energy market comes from these onshore installations. Currently, the U.S. boasts over 73,000 wind turbines spread across 44 states. Globally, companies are innovating to create more advanced turbine models. Some of these turbines are even taller than the Statue of Liberty, with blades extending up to 105 meters. Technicians typically work at a designated wind farm or travel to various sites. The job, predominantly undertaken by young men, is known for its riskiness, but efforts are underway to attract more women to the field. Despite the inherent dangers, those with experience in the field find the job exhilarating. Neal Gyngard, a former technician, acknowledges the challenges but highlights the satisfaction of the job, noting that successfully resolving issues feels like saving the day. #windturbinejobs #renewableenergygrowth #techniciancareers #onshorewindfarms #greenjobboom

How to earn $80,000 in the USA without education - become a technician in a wind farm. The average salary for U.S. wind farm technicians is $80,000 per year, and the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics projects that employment of wind turbine maintenance technicians will increase by nearly 45% over the next decade. As U.S. wind farm manufacturers and operators expand training and hiring, technicians can earn about $80,000 a year even without a college degree. In exchange, they must be willing to travel extensively, endure extreme weather conditions, and carry 50 pounds of equipment up long ladders in confined spaces. Job openings for wind turbine technicians in the US have grown sixfold since 2018, according to Revelio Labs, and even recent challenges in offshore wind farm construction and investment have not slowed that growth rate. More than 73 thousand wind turbines are scattered across 44 American states. Each turbine typically requires maintenance twice a year, as well as periodic repairs. Vestas employs about 15 thousand people worldwide, servicing 56 thousand turbines in 77 countries. Approximately 2,000 of these technicians are located in the United States, and there are currently approximately 150 job openings. Vestas plans to expand its U.S. turbine service workforce by approximately 800 people this year. The company says it aims to add up to 1,400 new recruits annually in the coming years, Bloomberg reports.

🚫Seasoned wind technician (like a 🍔) #WindCareerHints 3 ➡️Suitable Expressions: 💡"#Experienced wind technician" 💡"#Skilled wind technician" 💡"#Competent wind technician" 📌I see this expression in a lot of wind technicians ”About” sections, and not only in them. 🚫I would not use the adjective "seasoned" to characterize someone's expertise. In a business setting, the word "seasoned" could seem too casual or subjective, even though it does suggest some degree of knowledge and skill. When describing your talents and credentials, I would use words like "experienced," "skilled," "proficient," or "competent," since they are more factual and objective. "You are not a piece of food to be seasoned; therefore, I would avoid using this term in your CV or about section."
