Most people never think about what happens when a wind turbine blade is damaged. But keeping those blades in service takes a level of skill, grit, and technical knowledge that few people ever get to see. In our new video, Composites One went behind the scenes with Coastal Composites and Blade Repair Academy for an inside look at the world of blade repair: a high-skill, high-stakes job dedicated to keeping these giants spinning and the clean energy flowing. 

This is a small but critical industry facing very real challenges, including a shortage of new technicians, the loss of hands-on knowledge as experienced repair techs leave the field, and the continued need for safer, more efficient ways to access and repair blades. The video shows how our customers are helping move the industry forward, with Blade Repair Academy expanding access to education and training, and Coastal Composites elevating safety standards through technology that makes blade access safer and more efficient.
