The success of wind energy is due in particular to dynamic companies such as Deutsche Windtechnik. Matthias Brandt and his team have always succeeded in recognising developments in good time and offering appropriate services to the industry. Fifteen to twenty years ago, a number of operators asked themselves the question whether the manufacturer was always the most efficient partner to provide service for their wind turbines. Deutsche Windtechnik was one of the first companies to appear on the German market as a service provider, and today the BWE Service Survey ranks it as the market leader in this field. As a reminder: At that time, many operators thought the manufacturer's partner model was the only and indeed the best service option. As a representative of the industry association, I am particularly pleased that Deutsche Windtechnik always keeps the entire market in mind, not just its own interests." Congratulations on 10 GW!
