General information
- Short Summary
- The German engineering company provides services and products for the wind energy industry. They look for partners on a commercial, investment or development agreement basis for their own product, a wind turbine generator optimized for low-wind-speed-application, with a rated power output of 2.3 MW and a rotor diameter of 141m. They would like to offer it as inhouse-turnkey projects or as a licensed product and welcome the discussion of international requirements and challenges.
- Full Description
-
Founded in 2014, the German engineering company offers various technical services in the wind energy sector. Since then, the company has developed further innovations in the field of wind energy in close cooperation with its growing customer base. In addition to partial solutions and services (system simulation, component and software development) for the control and operation of individual wind turbines and wind farms, the company also develops and designs complete wind turbines for use in the onshore sector.
Successive improvements based on the know-how and extensive experience of the employees have led to professional and robust solutions, which have been incorporated in particular into the company's own product, a base-load-optimized wind turbine with a rated output of 2.3 MW and a rotor diameter of 141 m. This wind turbine achieves a high number of full-load hours even at low-wind-speed sites and is therefore particularly suitable for net-metering-projects and applications with special requirements, such as electrolysis projects, seawater desalination, etc..
Market entry in Germany has taken place and the pilot plant has been in operation since the beginning of 2024. Further projects in Germany are under development.
The company offers the 2.3MW wind turbine product as a turnkey product in Germany, but also worldwide. Alternatively, the technology is also offered as a licensed product. The company supports a potential licensee in setting up the manufacturing through to series production.
The product is currently being further developed for worldwide use. The output and rotor diameter are being increased, while the characteristics of high full load hours and base load capability are being consistently pursued.
In order to expand the business to international markets, the company is now looking for partners from the renewable energy sector worldwide to discuss international requirements and challenges. Target partners are medium-sized industrial companies, project developers, users and industrial end consumers with high energy consumption who want to reduce their energy costs and CO2 emissions by generating their own electricity from renewable energies. - Advantages and Innovations
-
Most of the company's employees have been working in the wind energy sector for more than 20 years. This experience and the continuous analysis of the market is the basis for the development of the new base load-capable wind turbine with particular robustness and a long service life.
The most important features of the wind turbine are as follows:
• 4000 full load hours even at locations with low average wind speeds (6.5m/s) while conventional design turbines reach only 2500 – 3000 full load hours,
• Optimized converter system to meet all grid requirements worldwide,
• Open-source control system that can be easily adapted to specific project requirements,
• Component design with reduced "carbon footprint" i.e. the avoidance of concrete towers and the use of rare earths or other critical raw materials compared to conventional solutions
• Use in net metering applications, which have the need of project-specific adaptation, possible,
• Coupling of electrolysis to generate hydrogen made possible at sides with medium wind conditions thus improving commercial viability for this application, and, for the the same reason,
• particularly suitable for drinking water applications. - Stage of Development

Partner Sought
- Expected Role of a Partner
-
In order to expand the business to international markets, the company is now looking for partners from the renewable energy sector worldwide to discuss international requirements and challenges. Target partners for commercial, investment or development agreements are:
- Medium-sized industrial companies that want to enter the production of complete wind turbine generators or components.
- Project developers, which are looking for wind turbines with the described characteristics of a high number of full load hours.
- Users who want to increase vertical integration in local markets or need to demonstrate local value creation and are interested in the license model.
- Industrial end consumers with high energy consumption who want to reduce their energy costs and CO2 emissions by generating their own electricity from renewable energies. - Type and Size of Partner
