Wind turbines definitely need maintenance and a large enough wind farm will probably need that constantly to keep everything running. Wind turbine maintenance is also pretty specific, because it's at height and requires specific knowledge and skills. Off shore wind farms add an extra challenge because of the location.

Even emergency escape from a burning turbine requires someone who is comfortable rappelling several hundred feet through thin air.
