Innovation and Sustainability: LEITWIND transforms the Turkish Wind Energy Market
Wind energy plays a key role in achieving our country’s renewable energy goals. LEITWIND, an Italian company specialized in the design, installation, and maintenance of megawatt-class wind turbines (ranging from 250 kW to 3,000 kW), thanks to its investments in R&D and its wide product porfolio, is able to offer the most suitable solution for every need, ensuring the highest quality and reliability.
A clear example of this commitment is the development of the configuration LTW90 with a nominal power of 1500 kW. With its large rotor diameter, this turbine ensures significant energy production even in low wind conditions, setting it apart from competitors in the same market segment.
In spring 2023, the first installation of this wind turbine in Turkey was successfully completed in the municipality of Lüleburgaz, located in the province of Kırklareli in the Marmara region. The average annual energy production of this wind turbine’ can meet the annual consumption of over 1,100 Turkish households. Furthermore, the wind turbine is equipped with D4.1 generator, the most advanced generator model, which offers significant benefits in electrical power control, efficient use of brakes , compliance with grid codes, and reduced noise emissions.
“There are several factors that have made LEITWIND so competitive in the Turkish market: cutting- edge technology, the approach to investments in line with European standards, and, last but not least, a strong local presence: in fact, after LEITNER TURKEY, inaugurated in May 2012 for the ropeway sector, LEITWIND’s Turkish subsidiary opened its doors in Bursa LEITWIND differentiates itself from its competitors in every single phase of the project , from the quickness of installation to the wide range of services offered, from the quality and reliability of the products to the quick return on investment and definitely for the know-how shared with the HTI Group, to which it belongs. This has allowed us to successfully install 10 LEITWIND wind turbines in Turkey and enables us to work with an increasing number of local investors,” stated Can Güven, Sales Manager Turkey.

Powering the Future: LEITWIND’s Customizable Wind Turbines
LEITWIND, the only Italian manufacturer of megawatt-class wind turbines (ranging from 250 kW to 3,000 kW), stands out in the market for its ability to customize products, always aiming to find the most efficient and reliable solutions for its customers. This customer-focused approach has led to the erection of over 400 wind turbines worldwide, including 10 installations in Turkey
This success is driven by continuous investments in R&D and the support of LEITWIND’s parent company, High Technology Industries (HTI) Group—a global leader in the winter sports sector with brands like LEITNER, POMA, DEMACLENKO, and PRINOTH. The Group’s high standards of quality and reliability are recognized worldwide, with a global presence that includes 21 production sites, 108 branches, and 138 sales and service centers.
There are many factors that have made LEITWIND so competitive in the Turkish market: state-of- the-art technology, the offer of a complete all-inclusive package that includes, in addition to the standard supply of wind turbines, also the support during the authorization and construction procedures and the strong local presence: in fact, after LEITNER TURKEY, which opened in May 2012 to follow the ropeway industry, the subsidiary LEITWIND TURKEY opened its doors in Bursa.
With more than 20 years of expertise in megawatt-class wind turbines, LEITWIND differentiates itself from competitors through its “medium-sized” product portfolio (250 kW-3,000 kW), offering advantages such as easier transport, installation, and long-term management. Additionally, LEITWIND turbines are designed with a modular concept, allowing for adaptation to both customer needs and specific site requirements.
LEITWIND remains committed to continuous product optimization, with the LTW90 wind turbine (500-2,000 kW) standing as a prime example and the flagship model in LEITWIND’s portfolio. Boasting a large rotor surface, the LTW90 excels in energy production, even in low-wind areas, making it an ideal choice for single-installation projects. In 2023, the first LTW90 with a capacity of 1,500 kW was successfully installed in Lüleburgaz (Kırklareli).Looking ahead, a 2,000 kW LTW90 installation is planned for 2025, underscoring the global significance and competitive edge of the LTW90 model in the

Vestas plans to establish a second offshore factory in Poland to meet growing demand for offshore wind in Europe
Vestas wants to become a leader in offshore wind, supporting Europe’s build-out of offshore wind parks, and we are excited to announce our plans to establish a new blade factory in Szczecin, Poland. The factory is planned to produce blades for Vestas’ flagship offshore wind turbine, the V236-15.0 MW, and is expected to start operations in 2026, creating more than 1,000 direct jobs. Together with Vestas’ previously announced plans to establish an assembly factory for offshore nacelles in Szczecin, Vestas’ manufacturing footprint could increase with more than 1,700 direct jobs by 2026.
“Vestas intends to lead the development of a sustainable supply chain in Europe that can deliver the scale needed to meet the expected growth in demand for offshore wind. Our plans for two new offshore factories in Poland underline that Europe can spur wind industry investments and green jobs with the right long-term policy commitments for offshore wind projects,” says Tommy Rahbek Nielsen, Vestas COO.
“Poland is transforming its energy system and is a promising wind energy market with good wind conditions both onshore and offshore. Poland has a highly skilled labour force and growing wind industry that can become an offshore hub for the Baltic Region and the rest of Europe. We have been a market leader in Poland for more than 20 years, and I am honoured to announce our next investment plans in Szczecin,” says Nils de Baar, President of Vestas Northern & Central Europe.
The new offshore blade factory is planned to be located at a site in northern Szczecin, which Vestas acquired in February 2023. The site is close to the Ostrów Brdowski Island in Szczecin where Vestas’ planned nacelle assembly factory would be located. The assembly factory is expected to start operations in 2025 and create 700 direct jobs.
The new factories are planned to support European and to some extent global demand, playing a crucial role in supporting Poland and the European offshore wind market and industry. With the two new factories in Szczecin together with Vestas’ already existing footprint, Vestas is expected to soon employ more than 2,500 people in Poland.
Vestas’ manufacturing footprint strategy is to prioritise markets where there’s long-term certainty around market conditions and we have secured a sustainable order volume. Other locations where those conditions are met are also being considered for new capacity.
