About BALU MANI:
I am an experienced Wind Turbine Service Engineer and Blade Repair Technician with over 8 years of hands-on experience in wind turbine operations, maintenance, and blade repair. I specialize in troubleshooting mechanical, electrical, and hydraulic systems across multiple turbine platforms, including Vestas (V82, V100, V110, V120), NM48, and Enercon models. My expertise includes both scheduled and unscheduled maintenance, major component replacement, and advanced blade repair techniques such as vacuum bagging, infusion, TE/LE damage repair, lightning damage restoration, and CIM activities. I’ve led and coordinated repair teams, performed detailed inspections (including drone-based), and handled technical documentation (BIR, BRR, BLEP). I hold certifications in GWO Basic Safety, Blade Repair (B & C), and Troubleshooting, with working knowledge of tools like SAP and Microsoft Office. I am fluent in Tamil, English, Telugu, and a beginner in Spanish, with valid Indian and Thai driving licenses and an international passport. I’m currently seeking challenging opportunities where I can contribute my skills and grow within the global wind energy sector.
