my name is Wayne Oliver and I’m the
western Canada Regional supervisor over
transalta’s wind assets
what I mostly do is I make sure that I
have adequate Manpower and then I make
sure they safely do their jobs
I think a good manager should get out in
the field and see what’s going on well I
try to get out into the field at least a
couple of times a month try to climb
turbines so that I know what’s going on
what the challenges are that my crew are
facing
I love that I’m in renewable energy
that’s a thrill
we can offset the combustion of
hydrocarbons by capturing winds and
turning it into electricity I just think
that’s cool
I think if someone goes into wind energy
they’ll have a long exciting career
