Wind Turbine technician Terrill Stowe climbs to the top of the wind turbine on the campus of Mesalands Community College in Tucumcari, New Mexico, on July 11, 2024. Built in 2008, the campus wind turbine is one of the few in the US where new technicians can train to join the booming wind industry. The amount of electricity wind power is capable of generating has more than doubled in ten years. Maintenance is therefore becoming a crucial issue. But “there aren't enough technicians for the number of wind farms”, explains Stowe. (Photo by Frederic J. BROWN / AFP)
