The South African Wind Energy Association (SAWEA) is recruiting for their 2025 Wind Industry Internship Programme (WIIP).
This initiative supports South Africa’s goal of achieving a low carbon economy and a climate-resilient society through creating quality jobs, aligning with South Africa’s Just Energy Transition Investment Plan (JET IP), and the South African Renewable Energy Master Plan (SAREM).
The rapid expansion of the wind industry requires a diverse array of skills and roles. The WIIP offers an excellent opportunity for young graduates to bridge the gap between graduation and employment.
Interns will benefit from a unique eight-month practical experience, supplemented by the newly introduced 10-day Work Readiness Programme (WRP). This initiative equips participants with essential workplace skills, including computer literacy and professional etiquette, ensuring they are well-prepared for their careers.
The programme welcomes diverse talents, appealing to young South Africans from various academic backgrounds, including engineering, natural sciences, administration, social sciences, and information technology. As part of the WIIP, participants will engage in meaningful work that contributes to South Africa’s renewable energy landscape while also enhancing their skills.
