At WindEnergy Hamburg, Envision Energy and TÜV Nord solidified their commitment to advancing wind power innovation by signing a comprehensive strategic cooperation memorandum. This collaboration signifies a significant step forward in the global wind power industry, which is rapidly evolving towards greater scale and international competitiveness.
Envision Energy, a leading force in the industry, has held the top position in global wind turbine orders for both 2022 and 2023. The company’s dedication to international growth and industry leadership is evident through its partnership with TÜV Nord. This collaboration encompasses nine key areas, focusing on enhancing Envision’s self-developed wind power supply chain through technological research and product development, certification, testing, quality management, and internationalization strategy.
The signing ceremony witnessed the certification of Envision’s large-megawatt integrated drivetrain for onshore wind turbines by TÜV Nord. This drivetrain, with a power output exceeding 10 MW, stands as the largest of its kind, showcasing Envision’s groundbreaking advancements in drivetrain structural design. This technological leap significantly enhances the performance and reliability of Envision’s smart wind turbine products, solidifying its position as a frontrunner in the industry.
Mr. Yimin Lou, Envision Energy’s Senior Vice President and President of the Wind Turbine Division, emphasized the importance of this partnership: “As the wind power industry evolves, Envision Energy remains committed to providing high-quality, innovative products that meet diverse global market requirements and provide exceptional service to our customers. TÜV Nord is one of Envision’s key international partners. Together, we aim to develop new certification models ranging from complete machines to component levels and establish robust safety standards and technical specifications crucial for global market success.”
Mr. Alexander Ohff, TÜV Nord’s Global Executive Vice President of Renewable Energy, echoed the sentiment: “Envision Energy’s technological strengths and leadership in the wind power sector have been clearly demonstrated during this certification process. With its large-megawatt integrated drivetrain for onshore wind turbines, Envision is not only spearheading a new era in drivetrain technology but also achieving significant success in both domestic and global markets. Looking ahead, TÜV Nord is committed to continuing our partnership with Envision to further technological innovations in renewable energy, supporting the global transition to green energy.”
The collaboration between Envision Energy and TÜV Nord extends beyond the signing ceremony. They are actively engaged in multiple SSDA projects and supplier manufacturing assessments, several of which have already been completed. This ensures that future global projects are delivered on time and with the highest quality, meeting critical requirements such as project financing and delivery commitments.
In addition to these ongoing efforts, the two parties have collaborated to obtain multiple new technology certification white papers. This further empowers Envision to leverage its self-developed technologies in turbine model development and certification, consistently enhancing the quality, advancement, and international competitiveness of its wind turbines. This partnership between Envision Energy and TÜV Nord signifies a commitment to a greener future, driving innovation and accelerating the transition to a sustainable energy landscape.
