All European units united under one umbrella: Deutsche Windtechnik creates new European holding company
Deutsche Windtechnik has united its European units under the umbrella of Deutsche Windtechnik Europe Holding GmbH
© Deutsche Windtechnik AGBremen (renewablepress) - Deutsche Windtechnik has reorganised parts of its company: Effective immediately all European units – with the exception of the German units – are united under the umbrella of the newly created company Deutsche Windtechnik Europe GmbH. This step will help to create even more long-term clarity and responsibility in the organisational structure of the increasingly international company. The CEO of the new unit is Carl Rasmus Richardsen.
The European unit is one of four pillars in the company's new structure. These four pillars are the Onshore unit in Germany, the Offshore unit in Germany, the European unit and the US unit.
Matthias Brandt, Director of Deutsche Windtechnik, said: "We work continuously to make our company future-proof and structurally sustainable. The four pillars help us to offer our services even more successfully both nationally and internationally. In Europe in particular, we will be able to further consolidate our market position by combining our efforts. At the same time, the European units within the corporate group will have an even stronger presence. This will also further improve cooperation within the four pillars and with the parent company."
Strong together, operationally independent
The new CEO Carl Rasmus Richardsen provided more specific insights: "We are moving closer together in Europe and taking an even closer look at what makes us stronger together. However, the European country units will remain operationally independent." To this end, Deutsche Windtechnik Europe has expanded its international team to include experts from the fields of specific ERP, engineering and management. They will work together with the management and specialist departments of the respective country units to identify additional potential and synergies. "A possible result of this process might be something like improved mutual support in engineering, for example. Our country units will also continue to coordinate with each other in order to organise their on-call teams more efficiently at weekends or deploy personnel more flexibly. What unites us all – across national borders – is our commitment and the high quality of our service. This has been our identity since Deutsche Windtechnik was founded: Our technical expertise and specialist know-how always enable us to find a solution. The new holding company will form the basis for this in Europe."
The management level of the new European team
Carl Rasmus Richardsen was CEO at Deutsche Windtechnik Offshore & Consulting GmbH from 2014 to 2024. In this role, he was responsible for the development of the offshore unit in Germany as well as establishing offshore units in the Netherlands, Taiwan and the UK. In addition to Carl Rasmus Richardsen as Managing Director of Operations, the management team also includes Christina de Vries, Hristo Pavlov, Nikolas Claaß (all Directors Onshore Europe) and Torsten Wohlert (Director International Engineering). They will all contribute their extensive expertise, experience and passion for wind energy technology in the new European unit.
