Rayce Abbott

I am a recent graduate from Heartland Community College. I have obtained both a Wind Technology and a High Voltage Battery Certificates. My passion is wind turbines, wind technology, and renewable energy. I enjoy learning about various wind turbine models and their outputs and specifications. In my spare time I map out different established wind farms as well as up and coming farms that are in the process of being built.

I am new to the wind technology industry as I am just starting out after completing my certifications. I have experience in the food industry running dishwasher machines, doing small maintenance work, and janitorial work. I have worked as an administrative assistant and janitor in other job capacities as well. I have some speaking experience on the subject of Autism at Illinois State University in front of classes providing my life experiences as well as at the 2025 Autism Conference at ISU.

I recently completed my Wind Technology certification at Heartland Community College. Prior to that I obtained a High Voltage Battery certificate and as well as other base renewable energy courses. I have taken a PLC Programmable Logic Controllers course, Mechanical Gear and Shaft systems course, as well as Pneumatic and Hydraulic Systems. I hold 2 SACA certifications; one in pneumatics and one in hydraulics. I also have a 10-hour OSHA General Health and Safety certification. I completed my courses with a 3.6 GPA. I will be completing a welding I and weather course.
