Wind Turbine Technicians - A Different Kind of Wind Energy Job

When most people think about jobs in wind energy, they think of technicians and engineers, hundreds of feet in the air working on giant windmills. While these types of jobs are out there and are certainly a very good career option, there are other ways to enter the field of wind energy without climbing these gigantic turbines. One of those ways is to work in a wind turbine monitoring station. These stations are often called Remote Operations Centers (ROCs for short), and they are the brains behind these giant wind farms.
