Vestas Wind Systems A / S (short: Vestas) ( Copenhagen Stock Exchange : VWS.CO), based in Aarhus, Denmark, is the world's largest manufacturer of wind turbines in terms of sales and installed capacity (as of 2018). At the end of 2017, the company had around 23,000 employees in 26 countries, including Denmark, Germany, Sweden, Great Britain, Italy, China, Japan, the USA and Australia.
With more than 66,000 installed wind turbines with an installed capacity of over 113 gigawatts (GW) in 81 countries, the company, which was founded in 1945 and has been manufacturing wind turbines since 1979, is one of the world's leading in the industry. Vestas has been the world leader in the number and total output of newly installed wind turbines almost every year since 2000, with a few exceptions: In 2012, the company was outperformed in the global market for onshore wind turbines by GE Wind . In 2015 Goldwind installed more power. Based on the newly installed capacity of 9,600 megawatts , Vestas was once again the largest manufacturer of onshore wind turbines in 2019 (2018: 10,090 MW; 2017: 7,700 MW).
history
In 1945 Peder Hansen founded VEstjysk STaalteknik A / S in the small Danish town of Lem . The name was shortened to Vestas after a short time . First of all, household appliances were made. In 1950 agricultural machinery was mainly produced. In 1956 the production of intercoolers began and from 1968 hydraulic cranes for small trucks were produced. The 1970 oil crisis gave Peder Hansen a new business idea: renewable energies . In 1979 the first wind turbine was sold. A year later, Vestas began series production of wind turbines and installed the first 80 turbines with an output of 55 kW. In 1981 the first major orders were received from the USA . Vestas decided to manufacture the fiberglass components for the wind turbines itself. At the end of 1987, Vestas Wind Systems A / S was founded, which focuses exclusively on wind energy. In November 1991 the company's 1000th wind turbine was installed in Denmark. Between 1994 and 2001 Vestas held a 40% stake as a technical partner in the Spanish wind turbine manufacturer Gamesa .
In 1995, construction began on the Tunø Knob offshore wind farm in Kattegat, southeast of Aarhus, Denmark . The project was carried out in collaboration with I / S Midtkraft , who built the foundations. After the foundations were completed, Vestas took over the project and installed ten V39-500 kW systems in five days. In 1998 Vestas went public . The company's shares are traded on the Copenhagen Stock Exchange. In April 2002 the then largest offshore wind farm Horns Rev was built off the west coast of Denmark with 80 V80-2MW turbines. In July 2002 a further 30 turbines of the same type were ordered for the first large offshore wind farm in Great Britain, North Hoyle . Further major orders followed. Vestas merged in 2004 with NEG Micon A / S , another leading wind turbine manufacturer. The large Danish competitor was again from the merger of Micon A / S and the North tank Energy Group A / S emerged. Vestas was chosen as the company name, but the company headquarters were initially relocated to the Micon location in Randers .
In August 2009 Vestas hired over 5000 additional workers for new factories in China , USA and Spain . This was justified by the fact that these markets were growing faster, in contrast to the slow development of wind farms in Great Britain . For this purpose, other plants, for example on the Isle of Wight , should be closed and around 3000 employees in Europe laid off, against which there were protests. In 2012, Vestas had to carry out several restructuring measures and lay off staff due to overcapacity in the industry and falling prices for wind turbines. In addition, several plants were closed. At the beginning of 2013, the head office was relocated from Randers in Denmark to Aarhus. In October 2013 Vestas sold six of its production facilities to VTS Partners GmbH for one euro . In 2015, allegations of infidelity against several Vestas employees became known. According to this, several former employees are said to have inflicted damage of 18 million euros on the group and other companies in the industry.
The company's 55,000th wind turbine, a V112-3.0MW, was installed in October 2015 in the Schlüchtern-Wallroth wind farm in Hesse . At the end of 2015, Vestas took over the American maintenance and service provider UpWind Solutions. The takeover of Availon from Germany followed at the beginning of 2016 .
Locations and branches
Vestas' head office is in Aarhus. Important production facilities include in Lauchhammer-Süd (Vestas Blades Deutschland GmbH) , Lem , Nakskov , Isle of Wight , Taranto , Tianjin , Daimiel and Windsor . Maintenance is offered by Vestas Services GmbH in Husum . The Vestas Nacelles Germany GmbH has its headquarters in Lübeck .
The headquarters of Vestas Germany GmbH is located in Hamburg . The company has been active here since 1986 and employs around 2000 people. The management is taken over by Cornelis de Baar ( President ).

- All systems of the 3.45 MW generation use an asynchronous generator in combination with a full converter and gearbox . In 2013, the 3 MW platform was increased in output from 3.0 MW to initially 3.3 MW and later 3.45 MW. The change from permanent magnet generator (3.0 MW) to asynchronous generator (3.3 MW and 3.45 MW) was associated with the increase in output. The reason was the price increase for permanent magnets . Vestas has been offering a power-optimized mode with 3.6 MW since 2015.
- V136: In September 2015, the system based on the 3 MW platform with a rotor diameter of 136 meters was presented at the HUSUM WindEnergy . It is offered on towers (usually tubular steel) with a hub height of up to 166 m and is intended for low-wind locations. The prototype was set up in December 2016 in the Østerild wind turbine test field . Series production started in mid-2017, so that the first V136-3.45 MW with a hub height of 149 m was put into operation on July 25, 2017 in Lichterfeld-Schacksdorf . The rotor blades are produced in the Lauchhammer plant.
- V126: In 2019, the V126 was the most frequently commissioned type of system in Germany.
- V112: The system was introduced in 2010, initially had a nominal output of 3.0 MW and established the start of the 3 MW platform. In 2015 the V112 was the most frequently commissioned type of system in Germany.
In Europe's largest onshore wind project currently being planned on Fosen near Trondheim , consisting of six wind farms with a total output of 1 gigawatt, the construction of 248 V117-3.45MW turbines and 30 V112-3.45MW turbines, each with a performance-optimized Mode with 3.6 MW nominal output is planned.

- The 2 MW platform was started in 2000 with the V80-2MW and added to other types of systems in the following years. The V90 was introduced in 2004, the V100 in 2009 and the V110 in 2014. In 2017 the V116 and the V120 were presented, which went into series production in late 2017 and early 2018, respectively. Technically, almost all systems are equipped with a three-stage gearbox and a double-fed asynchronous generator. A permanent-magnet synchronous generator was only used in 2011 and 2012 in certain systems, but Vestas then switched back completely to the previous drive train.
- The prototype of the V120 was built in the Ringkøbing-Skjern municipality in early 2018 .
- The prototype of the V116 was erected in the wind turbine test field Høvsøre at the end of 2017 . The V116 was voted "Wind Turbine of the Year" in the category "Onshore up to 2.9 MW" in 2017.
- The V110-2.0 MW is mainly used on the American market for major projects such as the XI wind farm .
- The V90 with 1800 or 2000 kW is one of Vestas' best-selling systems.
