More than half of the wind turbines serviced by Deutsche Windtechnik, 65 percent, are installed in Germany. The proportion of international service contracts has increased significantly across Europe and recently also in the US.
“This means we provide service for exactly ten percent of the total rated output of wind turbines currently installed in Germany” said Director Matthias Brandt. “Ten years ago, it would have been a bold claim to say that an independent provider would one day provide service for systems on this scale. The service market has changed permanently in Germany, and we are also increasingly setting trends at the international level and have become a fixture for operators with a wide variety of requirements. We owe this growth primarily to our employees, our performance and the good cooperation with customers and partners. I can only emphasise once again that our customers truly appreciate the fact that there is an alternative to OEM service and that competition has kicked off at all”.
In addition to strong internal growth, the company's development this year also included mergers with other successful independent service providers, such as Windstrom Service, seebaWIND Service, GFW and psm Windservice.
Deutsche Windtechnik's multi-brand competencies are also reflected in the 10 GW system portfolio: Vestas / NEG Micon, Senvion and Siemens / AN Bonus turbines are most frequently serviced, followed by Nordex, Enercon, Fuhrländer and Gamesa.
Less common technologies are also included, such as the Mitsubishi turbines for which service contracts were recently signed in the US.
“Thanks to our mix of different technologies and our various markets, we are well-positioned for future growth onshore and offshore” added Mr Brandt. “The demand is there”.
