ONE ENERGY FEED

Welcome back to the latest installment of our Science Shorts and the last episode in the Simple Machine series.

In this episode, One Energy Intern Kyle explains the different types of screws, when to use them, and how they work. So, before you start your next DIY project make sure you have the right tools to complete the job!

For this week’s Wind View, we’re highlighting One Energy’s construction team as they build a crane mat!
A crane mat is made of large timber, and its purpose is to support the load between the crane tracks and the ground during lifting activities. Crane mats create a greater footprint below the crane, which helps spread the crane’s weight across more area, ultimately providing a larger bearing surface. Cranes can perform most of their standard movements on the mat, like tracking forward and backward, swinging, and booming.

 

Hi everyone! My name is Sophia Li, and I am a field engineer intern here at One Energy. Through One Energy’s Field Engineer Rotation Program, I’ve been given the unique opportunity to rotate through several departments such as Construction, Project Planning and Technology, Regulatory – and this week, Storytelling. I visited our current project site to take photos and learn how One Energy tells its story. Here I am, in the weeds, trying to photograph a different angle.

Through this rotation program, I got to learn how One Energy functions. I’m particularly appreciative of the opportunities to work hands-on with each team!
