Your Questions About Wind Turbine Technician
Chris asks…
Do wind turbine technicians need associates degrees or can trade schools suffice?
I heard a news story on NPR this morning about my state in critical demand for technicians, and how this particular trade school was helping students find employment in the wind energy sector. Online research on my behalf, tells me an associates degree is required.
Well, any turbine techs out there have a straight answer? I don’t want to drop 4 grand on a school and not be able to find work after wards.
admin answers:
Technicians go to trade school. Designers and planners need a BS in Engineering.

What kind of engineers make the windmills?
I am doing a oroject in science and i was just wondering what kind of engineers make the windmills or wind turbines or wind farms or whateveryou want to call them.
admin answers:
Mostly mechanical engineers, but electrical engineers for the generators, structural engineers for the structure.
Most things are designed by teams that cover multiple fields.
Edit: correction: technicians and workers make the wind turbines, engineers design them.
