Vietnam has finally reached its 4 GW wind installation milestone, the wind sector is expected to grow even more aggressively in the next decade with the increasing global emphasis on green transition and coal phase-out. It is important to keep the momentum going and continue to push for more aggressive targets and find solutions to address the bottle-necks that is preventing the wind energy sector from reaching its potential.

Liming Qiao
Head of Asia at Global Wind Energy Council

The renewables sector is united around one goal: ending that emergency while we still time to act. The Global Wind Energy Council is delighted to join forces with the Global Solar Council to help achieve this target.

Ben Backwell
CEO, Global Wind Energy Council

By combining historic training data, onshore and offshore installation capacity forecasts, key market insights and our in-depth understanding of health and safety in the global wind industry, we have been able to accurately model the future demand for GWO-trained personnel over the next five years – a critical period in the path to net-zero.
