In this episode of Watt’s Up Renewables, we sit down with Ross Bowman, a boots-on-the-ground leader in the wind energy industry, to explore what true technician culture looks like. Ross shares insights from his cross-country journey to support wind turbine sites, including high-risk repairs, rope access jobs, and the importance of developing a versatile, safety-first team.
We dive deep into: ✅ The reality of site support and field troubleshooting ✅ Training the next generation of wind tech leaders ✅ Why clean trucks = clean turbines (and what that says about your team) ✅ Creating transparent, supportive manager-tech relationships ✅ Why great leadership means calling the quiet ones ✅ Military mindset meets renewable fieldwork ✅ How to prepare future managers with intention—not assumption
This episode is a must-watch for current and aspiring wind techs, field managers, and anyone passionate about growing technician culture the right way.
📍 Whether you're in the nacelle or in the office, there’s a lesson here for every leader in renewables.
