WindEnergy 2024: JUWI reaches 3,000 megawatt threshold with current wind farm projects

JUWI GmbH, Wörrstadt!

Just in time for the world's largest wind energy trade fair, JUWI has reached a significant milestone in its wind energy business. The construction of the two wind farms Olsberg-Mannstein (7 turbines, 24.15 megawatts) and Olsberg-Antfeld (4 turbines, 22 megawatts) in North Rhine-Westphalia´s Hochsauerland district has pushed, JUWI past the 3,000-megawatt mark in installed wind energy capacity. MVV, JUWI's parent company, has added both wind farms to its own generation portfolio as part of its #climatepositive strategy. The first turbines of the two wind farms are already in operation and the others will follow soon. Since completing its first wind energy project in 1997, JUWI has planned and installed approximately 1,250 wind turbines worldwide. At WindEnergy in Hamburg, the company will be exhibiting at a joint stand with its sister company MVV Trading in Hall A4, Stand 336.

“Thanks to our extensive regional presence with offices across Germany, we have established a robust project pipeline in recent years. Additionally, the improved political framework is creating favorable conditions, and we expect further increases in approvals and new installations both for the industry and, especially, for JUWI,” says Christian Arnold, Managing Director of JUWI GmbH and responsible for operations in Germany.

At WindEnergy Hamburg, JUWI will focus on talks with potential investors and financial institutions. The company works with municipal utilities, local authorities and energy cooperatives, and institutional investors from both Germany and abroad. In addition, a growing number of industrial and service companies are now directly sourcing electricity for their operations, often through Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs).

At the trade fair, JUWI would also like to address current wind turbine operators, offering a broad range of services. As a leading provider of commercial and technical operations management, JUWI offers comprehensive O&M services, including 24/7 remote monitoring and secure data connections through Secure Connect.

In the field of repowering, JUWI is available nationwide as both a cooperation partner and as an investor for older wind farms, typically those older than 10 years. A quick assessment can be provided directly at the stand. A pioneer in repowering, JUWI has successfully repowered over 120 wind turbines in recent years, delivering higher electricity yields and added value.

“We will be represented in Hamburg by a team of experts from the project and operations management and look forward to engaging with both existing and new business partners,” Arnold adds.

New employer brand

In addition to showcasing its industry expertise, JUWIs presence at WindEnergy will also highlight its employer brand. In view of the well-filled project pipeline and a growing market, the company is planning additional new hires in the coming months. “With the slogan “The Power of Our Unity”, we are attracting both experienced specialists and young talent,” explains JUWI CEO Carsten Bovenschen. The pioneer for renewable energies, which has been established for almost 30 years, emphasizes sits cooperative corporate culture and underlines its sustainable business model. In the Recruiting Area (Hall B3, Stand RD.312), attendees will have the opportunity firsthand to find out more about working at JUWI on September 26 and 27.
