Creating the most from wind

Wind Equipment Key Visual

In competition on the wind energy market, one thing above all counts: lowest generation costs – Cost of Energy (CoE). And these, in turn, require highly efficient wind turbines that run smoothly and without disruption. Wind turbines with powerful, reliable components, seamlessly integrated and with optimum availability. Digitalization provides valuable support in this respect. Learn more!

Cost of Energy minimize

Wind equipment for optimum performance

With standardized components, consistent digitalization and comprehensive consulting, we are the partner of the wind industry. Whether in wind turbines or wind farms – our range of products and services ensures reliable, high availability solutions and supports you in rapidly implementing market-ready innovations. Benefit over the entire life cycle from investment-proof solutions, a fast Return on Investment and sustainably low Cost of Energy – with maximum security!

Optimize availability

The basis of your success is the best possible availability of your wind turbines. Because whether you are building or using wind turbines: Only turbines that run smoothly in the truest sense of the word earn money. In any climate, under the harshest conditions. This is why we offer you products and systems that have proven themselves thousands of times over, are designed for maximum performance and work together perfectly. Continuous communications across all levels give you full control over the plant, from remote monitoring of each individual turbine in the control center to condition monitoring of individual systems. And the more you know about the turbines the easier it is to avoid unplanned downtimes through preventive maintenance and repair work. Furthermore, integrated protection technology guarantees protection against overload e.g. in extreme weather conditions and safeguards your investment.

Maximize efficiency

As a wind turbine manufacturer or operator of wind farms, you can score points with Siemens – with efficient, automated turbines that really create the most from wind. Our standardized components and systems can be combined to meet your specifications. In addition, our systems work together extremely reliably and thus ensure higher efficiency of the entire plant. We ensure this in advance by means of comprehensive hardware and software system tests. Our wind generators have been developed especially for your industry and have a very high degree of efficiency. In combination with our new wind converters, they ensure maximum energy yield.

Reduce time-to-market

Time is money – and sometimes crucial for market success. Those who bring their innovations to the market earlier improve their competitive position. We support you with intelligent software solutions, e.g. for virtual prototyping and virtual testing. And our consistent engineering tools reduce your programming and commissioning overheads while minimizing the risk of errors. We have stored 80% of the functions of a wind turbine in the SIMATIC Wind Library, which you can incorporate into your automation as ready-to-use software components. All this reduces your planning efforts, simplifies and accelerates the development of new turbine concepts – and reduces your costs.

Security of investment over the entire life cycle

High investment security is ensured by standardized series, high connection compatibility and extensive system tests, but also by the proven industrial quality of all components. As world market leader in automation technology, our experience also enables us to ensure the highest product and production quality and to verify this with industry-specific certificates. Should there ever be a need for replacement parts: high backward compatibility and long-term, global availability of replacement parts support rapid exchange and restart.
