前言

2020.6
由於朋友的推薦,發現台灣風電產業,於是我萌生了爬風機梯子的想法,投了幾家風電公司的風機維修技師的缺,第一家面試是永傳能源Wind Turbine Technician
以下答案除了自己在風電工作經驗外,還有諮詢上緯 、OWC 、Ørsted及Siemens Gamesa的朋友

P2基礎電學
P3離岸風電HSE
P4離岸風電設備
P5氣象塔排錯
P6離岸風電名詞解釋
離岸風電專業術語
永傳能源Wind Turbine Technician筆試(2020/9)
A.What is your understanding of offshore wind industry in Taiwan and globally?
B.What are the pros and cons to form a joint venture with a partner?What are the key factors to be considered when taking further steps into forming a JV?
C.翻譯
D.(1)請解釋為何選擇合約內的管轄法院重要(2)請解釋Alternative dispute resolution(ADR)revenues?
E.Draft a mail in english to discuss with fund

G.如何管好下包?

永傳能源Wind Turbine Technician筆試(2020/6)

P1(英文)如何寫信給供應商、告知他們備品快不夠,要採購才能維持維修和保養。告知廠商發現一個未知的系統警訊且無法解決,請求他們技術支援?

基本英文書信往來

P2 基礎電學(電子元件符號、電壓計電流計)

看得懂電子元件符號;理解電壓計、電流計串並聯和電阻怎麼算即可

How to Read a Schematic

P3 (英文)列舉離岸風電相關HSE,如何優化?

這裡我用以下影片說明風機技師會遇到的HSE(Health, Safety and Environment) issue

維修技師的風險有維護和施工兩種:
維護可分為三項:從路上裝備著裝檢查,登上運輸船開往海上風機,到進入離岸風機塔內維修。

1.Offshore:
-PPE(personal protective equipment): life jacket ,shoes, helmet ,gloves
-Fall arrest: for slip trip fall, clamps,tools
-Buddy check

2.Boarding the Transfer Vessel :
-Seat belt fastened all the time
-Marine transfer: bad weather condition , survive in water

3.Inside the turbine
-Stop wind turbine
-Log on using control panel (inside the turbine )

Working at the height
-Wearing PPEe at all time ;fall arrest ;always attached to safety point
-Weather Hazard : too strong wind, thunderstorm ;if stranded in bad weather : survival kit , sleeping bags, 3 day supply of food and water ,first aid kit
-Energy Release Hazard :electrical ,mechanical, hydraulic, fire
-Emergency arrangement :familiarity with procedure ,2 way radio
-Confined, limited area , overhead hazard

During Construction施工時的風險
-Using gloves to hand arm vibration
-Follow designated walk way, don’t walk under suspended loads

如果要非常詳細也可以參考勞動部的 離岸風電海域作業安全指引
歷史上發生風機事故風速太快轉不停、火災、傾倒…等,還是有風險

P4 說明離岸風電所有裝置

參考以下網頁完整的圖文說明:離岸風機內部結構、水下電纜、變電站、路上電塔

P5 氣象塔上有六個風速計,各在不同高度,架構如下(考卷上有附圖)平時正常,有一天最低處的風速計壞掉,修好裝回氣象塔後,造成系統無發蒐集訊號,請問如何排錯?是硬體或是軟體問題?請給出自己分析方法

分析問題的能力

P6 解釋以下名詞,以及如何有效管理

1.Inventory Management

Taking a gearbox for example, a gearbox accounts for 13% of the whole turbine’s cost so it may cause high inventory cost. We have to take into many factors into consideration like : procurement (lead time, cost), expected lifespan ,warehouse spaces and costs ,availability of maintenance…etc for optimization.

2.Shift and Rotation

During installation ,we prefer to finish the tasks ASAP under some meteorological condition and save huge cost incurred by vessels(chartering jack-up barge or a crane ship) ,equipment and personnel expenses. Thus we implement shift and rotation of workers (for example 2 shifts of 12 hours) for continuous work.

3.Transport of turbines

4.Weather window

離岸風電領域中,某個工項的規劃,在浪高和風速都符合工作規範下,能完成此工項的時間,稱為weather window

5.turbine availability

time-based/production-based performance of the turbine in a period of time.the latter we can use data from Nacelle anemometer to determine its performance
一年可以供多少電or一年有多少時間在發電

永傳能源Wind Turbine Technician筆試(2020/9)

第一題:現在有哪些再生能源,且描述怎麼產生能源的

第二題:請畫圖並描述如何安裝風力發電機,並敘述海底電纜的擺設方式

第三題: The relationship between installed capacity, annual electricity production, and annual availability

第四題:

第五題:
(1)西門子風機的價格太高了,請寫信告知對方價格過高,並以闡述我們公司的優勢

(2)某公司提供的架設海底電纜報價比起歐洲海底電纜報價高20%,請在信中告知對方報價過高,並邀請對方來臺灣實地考察

永傳能源Wind Turbine Technician筆試(2020/9)

這個應該是在應徵packag manager職位

A.What is your understanding of offshore wind industry in Taiwan and globally?

(2021.11)

我會說台灣目前的離岸風場三階段 舉幾個例子(當然要提到永傳的)
然後舉些投資銀行、製造商、買電的企業
國際的風場會從英國、丹麥講起 擴展到最近的日本 越南 美國 希臘 法國 義大義

B.What are the pros and cons to form a joint venture with a partner?What are the key factors to be considered when taking further steps into forming a JV?

C.翻譯 (PS.台灣第一座離岸風場是FOW 1)

D.
(1)Please explain why the choice of governing law and jurisdiction matters during contract negotiation

(2)Please explain what are the Alternative dispute resolution(ADR)revenues?

E.這題已經到投資的scope,請我綠能投資圈朋友回答

F. 解釋下列Financial terminology

1.Syndication loan
2.Legal reserve
3.Internal Rate of return
4.Net present value
5.Withholding tax

G.如何管好下包?

合約要簽好,Scope of work定義清楚避免爭議。之後scope外的工作也要先訂好價格和品質條件需求

適時可以提供下包教育訓練 並請下包參與會議 多溝通
