Projects: wind turbine decommissioning across Germany

Dismantling a wind turbine seen from above: rotor and nacelle on the ground next to the crawler crane

Selected projects

Decommissioning, secondary market and incidents

We’ve decommissioned more than 300 wind turbines so far, over 100 of them in 2026 alone. Sometimes it’s a single turbine affected by an incident, sometimes an entire wind farm, with more than 20 turbines in some cases.

Two cranes at the tower of a NEG Micon NM72 in the Düsedau wind farm

Düsedau wind farm

We took down five NEG Micon NM72 turbines here. The rotor blades went to recycling, and the foundations and crane pads were removed completely.

Milestones

Projects that shaped us

  1. 1,700 tLargest rotor blade recycling project

    2018 – still the largest rotor blade recycling project, approved under the BImSchG.

  2. “Jade”Industrial project

    Together with the Varel paper and board mill.

  3. 2024Mobile sawing unit

    Rotor blades cut up directly on site.
