GWO Hub Spinner Inside Blade Rescue

Our GWO Hub Spinner Inside Blade Rescue course is designed for professionals working in the wind industry or related sectors who may be required to perform advanced rescue operations within wind turbine generators (WTGs). This training equips participants with the skills and knowledge to conduct rescue operations inside a WTG hub, spinner, and blade, utilizing industry-standard rescue equipment and techniques that go beyond the requirements of GWO Working at Height. The course is especially suited for personnel who may be selected to lead or participate in advanced rescue scenarios, where specialized training can help mitigate identified risks.

Upon successful completion of the GWO Hub Spinner Inside Blade Rescue course, delegates will be able to assess and determine appropriate rescue and evacuation strategies for various emergency situations within the hub, spinner, and blade areas of a wind turbine. The training covers the application of rescue methods for both descending and ascending operations, the use of certified equipment such as cervical collars, rescue stretchers, spine boards, and manually operated lowering and raising systems. Participants will also learn to communicate effectively during rescue operations and coordinate the safe handover of injured persons to emergency responders. The course emphasizes hazard recognition and control, particularly regarding hazardous energies and the unique risks associated with enclosed spaces in wind turbines.

This course is intended for those who may need to perform or lead advanced rescue operations in wind turbine environments. All training is delivered in accordance with GWO standards, ensuring that participants are prepared to meet the demands of real-world rescue scenarios in the wind industry.
