To be able to climb Vertical Sky®, our engineers get certified in the highstep technique.

As the Vertical Sky®️ turbines exceed a height of 100 meters, a special height-training is required. Our team got introduced to the Highstep system in the practical training centre of Schweizwerk, the leading specialist in fall protection and rescue training in Switzerland. In addition to basic climbing training, the rescue of colleagues was trained with a special lifter ascending and descending a platform on a rail. It is comforting to know that we can help each other in an unusual situation and we will be able to use these tools in an agile way.
