Wind energy services: Deutsche Windtechnik AG expands in foreign markets

Bremen, Germany - The provider of manufacturer-independent wind turbine services, Deutsche Windtechnik AG, is stepping up its foreign operations, especially in Spain, Poland and the United Kingdom.

By the end of 2015 the company will have 122 employees outside Germany, 43 more than at the start of the year. Deutsche Windtechnik aims to increase the proportion of foreign revenue from currently 12 per cent to 30 per cent over the next two to three years. The company is making its first ever showing at the EWEA annual event in Paris.

Due to the increasing number of customer enquiries from abroad, Deutsche Windtechnik AG has decided to vigorously expand its international service network. While 80 employees at six service locations in Spain are already looking after around 600 wind turbines, Deutsche Windtechnik wants to increase its number of staff in the United Kingdom to 30. In Poland the service provider aims to have wind turbines with a total output capacity of 400 megawatts under contract by the end of 2016.

Other core markets for the company are the Netherlands and Denmark, where Deutsche Windtechnik AG opened subsidiaries in September. The two wind farms in France that the company has had under contract since autumn will initially be looked after by the German subsidiary seebaWIND Service GmbH in Osnabr
