The wind energy industry is the fastest growing segment of renewable energy production . The U . S . and Canadian commercial wind farms are experiencing annual growth of 25 percent . Employers seek skilled technicians for operation and maintenance activities in local wind farm settings . Within U . S . and international wind turbine manufacturers , there is also intense demand for upper-level technicians including installation technicians , quality control technicians , and warranty and commissioning technicians . Operation and maintenance positions remain with wind farm locations ; other technicians travel extensively with the development of new wind farms and repair / retro�tting of wind farms around the world .
