During 2022, 104 new training providers were certified, bringing the global network to a total of 517, spread across 52 countries.

🌬Le Minh Thanh, Country HSE officer for SGRE Vietnam and GWO Representative, will outline the industry need in a presentation to the Vietnam WindPower Conference in Hanoi on 2 December 2022.

Highlighting an opportunity for training providers to deliver much-needed training for a workforce of thousands, Thanh explains:

"Siemens Gamesa Renewable Energy is a leading member of Global Wind Organisation and our company shares a commitment with other OEMs and wind farm owner operators to use GWO training where appropriate for safety and technical training of wind turbine technicians. This is especially important in a high growth market like Vietnam.
