The outlook for wind turbine technicians remains strong in 2023, and wind techs have opportunities for growth and promotion.
Wind accounted for 71% of new power projects in the first half of 2022, and the ITC boosts existing and new projects. So why weren’t US companies well-represented in international trade shows?
What’s good, what’s bad, and what’s next for floating wind in the US, starting with the California BOEM lease auctions. Guest post from Philip Totaro.
The Wind Production Tax Credit (PTC) in the USA has been a powerful tool for asset owners to ensure the favorable financial health of their projects – and it’s driving repowering projects. To date, more than 75% of the 138GW of operational capacity in the United States has taken advantage of the PTC, and a total of 102 individual project phases have been repowered in the USA.
The concept of using wake steering to improve wind turbine energy production isn’t new, but new models and research from MIT have brought the
