Federation University will construct one of Australia’s first wind turbine towers dedicated to the training of new construction workers.
The turbine tower, to be built at the university’s Mount Helen campus in Ballarat, will be used to train students hoping to work in Australia’s growing wind industry.
Standing 23-metres tall, the turbine tower will be designed with ladders and safety equipment to provide students exposure to real-world conditions.
The training facility is part of the Asia Pacific Renewable Energy Training Centre being established at Federation University, with the support of $1.8 million in funding provided by wind energy companies, Vestas, Acciona, Tilt Renewables and GPG.
