r/wind

Hi folks, I’m new to diving into renewable energy through wind. Feel free to point me in the direction of helpful resources if this question is old news 😃

With solar, many homes and business get panels for their building. It doesn’t need to come from a large “solar farm” to be an energy option.

Why isn’t there the same conversation with wind? I see many homes and companies with flags blowing in the wind (for some businesses or government offices these flags are huge/very tall!) - couldn’t those be smaller scale wind turbines?

Surely this has already been explored by smarter minds than me! Is there a reason it’s not feasible?

Hello to all, just wanted to ask your experience or any advice of how to transition into the industry. For context I'm based in the UK with a valid EU passport, I have a Lv3 in light vehicle maintenance and repair, Lv3 in HV vehicle systems and just finished a teaching degree as being a Lv3 Light Vehicle lecturer + assessor. I have been having look online regarding job roles available but can't seem to find any junior roles available, all require previous experience. That's for on and offshore.

I would be wanting to start onshore but if possibility arises would love to work offshore.

From those in the industry what would be the best way to get into it?
