ENERCON is one of the world’s leading manufacturers of onshore WECs and is steadily transforming from a turbine manufacturer to a holistic provider of solutions for sustainable energy systems.
ENERCON’s portfolio includes wind energy converters with nominal power outputs ranging from 4.26 to 7.0 megawatts for a wide range of wind locations.
With its mission ‘Energy for the World’, the company has been driving the energy transition since 1984 and today has a total installed capacity of more than 67 gigawatts (as of 05/2026).
Strategic focus: customer-centric energy systems
At the core of the current strategy is a clear shift towards an integrated, customer-centric business model. ENERCON is the partner that develops customised energy solutions along the entire value chain – from wind farms of all sizes to industrial power solutions for companies that want to cover their energy needs as self-sufficiently, sustainably and competitively as possible.
Products: powerful onshore turbines
ENERCON’s portfolio includes wind energy converters with nominal power outputs ranging from 4.26 to 7.0 megawatts for a wide range of wind locations.
The most powerful model currently available is the E-175 EP5 E2, awarded ‘Turbine of the Year 2025’ (Onshore) by Windpower Monthly. With an output of up to 7 MW and a rotor diameter of 175 metres, it sets new standards in the onshore segment and took first place for new approvals in Germany in 2025 – making it the dominant turbine type on the German market.
System solutions & hybrid concepts
ENERCON is expanding its portfolio to focus on hybrid energy systems, in which wind energy is combined with other technologies such as storage solutions and photovoltaics. This results in integrated, stable and grid-friendly energy supply concepts.
The company is thus increasingly positioning itself as a partner for industrial power solutions that enable a direct and sustainable energy supply and offer companies greater independence from volatile energy markets.
Comprehensive range of services
ENERCON supports partners throughout the entire life cycle: from planning and financing to realisation, operation, maintenance, repowering and end-of-life concepts. A global service network with more than 360 locations ensures rapid availability and high operational reliability.
Technology, production and availability
ENERCON is regarded as a pioneer in wind energy and has had a lasting impact on the industry. The company’s turbines are equipped with modern grid connection technologies and actively contribute to grid stability.
A decisive competitive advantage is the very high technical availability of the turbines. This is ensured by innovative tower concepts such as hybrid towers (hybrid steel towers) and a robust and resilient supply chain. ENERCON also sets standards in operation. In the BWE Service Survey 2026, the company achieved the best overall rating (2.52) ahead of all relevant competitors – including in full maintenance contracts (2.43). ENERCON achieves a technical availability of up to 97 %.
The company’s own production and development network ensures that all components meet the high quality requirements and are optimally coordinated.
