You will have heard about the term ‘energy transition’ and perhaps wondered what this means and even how you can get involved. We can see fundamental changes in our daily lives from the electrification of motor vehicles to reducing our dependency on fossil fuels through the increased use of renewable energy sources. At GEV Wind Power, we are a key part of this transition and proud to be helping in a small way to accelerate the change. Our role is critical in supporting power generation from wind energy, where we are the market leader for maintaining one of the key components, the rotor blades. If the blades become damaged or simply lose their structural integrity through erosion from wind and rain, their efficiency and ability to produce power reduces dramatically. Our job is to ensure the blades keep their profile and are optimum for producing electricity. A career with GEV is taking ownership of the challenges we face globally and personally contributing to a positive future for us all. You will also join a dynamic and team orientated organization, where the culture is built around collaboration and driving change.
