Rationale
The driving force behind the Windskill initiative are the acute needs of the wind energy market. European qualification standards for a wide range of skills are needed to speeden the installation of wind farms throughout Europe.
Currently unaligned national and regional qualification requirements demand case-by-case solutions. These are costly, cause artificial delays and reduce cooperation potential.
The industry project initiative pools the resources of:
- wind turbine manufacturers
- wind farm operators
- service providers
- state legislation agencies
- business development agencies
- training providers
- financial institutions and insurance companies in a first-time effort to develop and set European qualification standards for the expanding demand for renewable energy.
