Power Programme

To encourage future technical advances in the wind power industry, we have a special research arrangement – the Vestas Power Programme – in partnership with the University of Aalborg in Denmark.
We are sponsoring three research programmes and several PhD projects in wind energy, power electronics and energy storage. All those taking part benefit from a wealth of hands-on support from our technical experts, opening the door for further research opportunities or even a job within the industry.
Although we are not currently taking applications for the programme, please continue to monitor our website for further updates.
