Master Class Modern Wind Turbine Technology
From complex design theory to practical, real world understanding
Many turbines look similar, but the technology may be very different. And with that the cost and value of wind energy generated will be different. The design drivers for modern wind turbines and the risks to current designs will be explained.
A technical background is not required.

Broad Curriculum combined with Farm Visit
The course content is broad and will touch on all relevant technology. For all who are working with or close to the wind energy sector, or for those who are considering to move closer to the win energy sector. After the course you will have a better understanding of the technology and the challenges and opportunities.
The breaks in between the training sessions will be used for a visit to the Wind Experience Center and a visit to a nearby wind farm. Visit the wind Experience Center.

Bespoke Curriculum for Local Policymakers
Bridging the gap between complex turbine technology and effective local policy
Different turbine architectures will be shown. Design options and choices of wind turbine manufacturers and project developers will be explained. These choices determine the economics of the project. But, the same choices also determine the impacts to the direct environment.
The course will explain the effects of design choices. The wind is a variable energy source. The course will explain how also some of the the environmental impacts are highly variable and complex to predict.
The course will give you a better understanding of technology choices and place you in a better position to balance the impact to different interests.
