About GWO
GWO is hosting the first ever Safety, Skills and Training Zone at the Wind Europe Conference & Exhibition on April 2nd & 3rd in Bilbao
%20-%20Copy.avif)
A brand-new 200m2 exhibition area dedicated to safety, learning and participation will be created at the Wind Europe Conference & Exhibition, helping delegates answer the question, ‘What does good training look like?'
Featuring an exciting mix of live training demonstrations, debates with industry leadership and activities for delegates to try out themselves, the Safety Training & Skills Zone is designed to help visitors to the exhibition think differently about the way we learn and keep our skills refreshed, so everyone can work safely in a wind turbine environment.
A key benefit for GWO stakeholders will be the inclusion of a comprehensive update from our Secretariat team and committee leadership including presentations from GWO Chairman Eloy Jauregui, Training Committee Chair John Barrie and Audit & Compliance Committee chair Sabas Herranz.
The Safety, Skills & Training Zone in association with GWO is hosted by Wind Europe. The zone will be in hall 3 of the main exhibition space.
GWO is not responsible for registrations. The prices below provide entry to the exhibition halls only.
The demand for wind energy continues to grow at a steady pace. By 2028, the world will need over 532,000 technicians to build and maintain wind fleets, both onshore and offshore. Notably, 40% of these roles will need to be filled by new entrants
Brazilian Association of Wind Energy and New Technologies, ABEEólica, has signed an MOU in strategic partnership with training standards body GWO. Tried and tested collaboration will provide certainty for all stakeholders, aligning Brazil’s safety regulations with globally recognised standards.
GWO and IRENA will initiate discussions of how global standards can best support skilled workforce development, in line with 2030 targets. Co-publication of the Jobs4RE Workforce Training Guidelines for the Wind Industry is set to follow in 2025.
The next generation of wind turbine technicians have a new training pathway to follow, courtesy of guidelines presented today by the Japan Wind Power Association working with GWO.
This GWO Positioning Paper provides an introduction to the key ambitions and terms of reference for a proposed expansion in opportunities to use a merit approach to safety & technical training in the wind industry
