Groton ― Amid the COVID-19 pandemic, Survival Systems USA pivoted.
A leader in training the military, law enforcement and the aviation industry in water safety and survival, the company added the then-fledgling offshore wind industry to its client base just as COVID-19 was shutting things down.
Since 2020, it’s now trained more than 1,500 people working for members of the Global Wind Organization, a nonprofit association of wind turbine manufacturers and renewable energy developers. The demand for Survival Systems’ services keeps growing.
On Friday, the 25th anniversary of the company’s debut here on Tower Avenue

Survival Systems USA Making Most of Offshore Wind Opportunity
CT Company Training Workers for Wind Farms

Less than 25 feet tall, the metal Erector Set-like staging platform in Groton does not appear a particularly daunting climb, save for perhaps anyone with the most extreme fear of heights. But imagine being above the cold North Atlantic waves, peering up hundreds of feet to the top of an offshore wind turbine — your destination — and quaky knees can be expected for at least the first few forays.
That's where Survival Systems USA comes into play, training workers on safe practices for scaling massive, offshore wind towers and working at great heights often in rough weather — and getting back to shore safely when the work is done.
