Electricians in wind energy and beyond

Electricians work with electrical power supply, industrial systems, building systems, and automation technology daily. They can apply these skills in wind turbines as well. Wind turbines are complex systems that require attention and care. Trained professionals are needed both during the installation phase and for ongoing operations. Their responsibility is to prevent or quickly rectify any malfunctions.

Requirements for job vacancies as electricians in wind energy

Job vacancies for electricians for wind turbines do not differ fundamentally from other jobs. A professional qualification is necessary to demonstrate the required expertise. However, working in the wind energy industry requires fulfilling specific prerequisites. As the work is sometimes performed at heights of 100 meters or more, every worker must have a head for heights. A certain level of acclimation to heights is essential. Those who wish to work as electricians offshore must also have sea legs.

In addition, the work involves physical exertion, demanding a basic level of fitness. Cooperation within a team is essential as the work is always performed in a team setting. Furthermore, work is conducted according to prescribed service plans that must be adhered to. Multiple installations spread across Germany and Europe are maintained, requiring a willingness to travel and overnight stays near wind farms. To solve acute problems, quick and effective decision-making is necessary.

Qualifications for electricians – offshore and onshore

Many job vacancies for electricians in wind energy list the specific job title of “service technician.” This is not a traditional apprenticeship but an additional qualification. It is not mandatory to hold this qualification to secure a relevant position, but it offers advantages. Graduates receive targeted training for the specific requirements of wind turbines. This often facilitates career transitions, and qualified applicants can enhance their chances.

What do I earn as a wind turbine electrician?

Providing precise salary information is not possible as it varies depending on factors such as the company, level of responsibility, and experience. In general, the more experience, certificates, and qualifications an employee brings in the field of wind energy, the higher the earning potential. If you would like an assessment, feel free to contact us directly for personalized advice.

The renewable energy market is booming, creating job opportunities. The chances of building a successful career and finding employment in the wind power industry are promising. The energy transition is well underway and will require more wind farms, as they are a key pillar of this transition. Therefore, if you have the right qualifications and are ready for a challenge, nothing stands in your way in this industry.

The most important qualities to succeed as an electrician in offshore or onshore positions are cooperation and initiative. Primarily, work is carried out in teams where members must rely on each other. However, there may be situations where quick solutions for acute problems are required, calling for independent decision-making and initiative. Adaptability is also crucial to keep pace with the rapid developments in the industry. With these qualities, success is within reach.
