  • Wind Energy Shipping and Logistics Is a Complex SCM Discipline As Each Wind Farm Project Requires Tailor-Made Solutions
    Poulsen, T., Rytter, N.G.M., Chen, G.: Global Wind Turbine Shipping & Logistics – A Research Area of the Future?, conference proceedings International Conference on Logistics and Maritime Systems (LogMS), September 12-14, 2013, Singapore, www.logms2013.org ［中文］全球风电物流——一个新兴的研究领域？作者托马斯.鲍尔森，尼尔斯.吕特， 陈刚，发表于 2013 年世界物流与海运系统大会，2013 年 9 月 12 日至 14 日于新加坡 1 GLOBAL WIND TURBINE SHIPPING & LOGISTICS - A RESEARCH AREA OF THE FUTURE? Thomas Poulsen, Gang Chen, and Niels G. M.

Meyers Vænge 15, 2450 Copenhagen SV, Denmark, emails respectively [email protected], [email protected], and [email protected] ABSTRACT This paper investigates shipping and logistics challenges of the rapidly growing wind turbine industry using an end-to-end supply chain perspective. Wind turbine supply chains execute activities related to inbound logistics, wind turbine production/assembly, outbound logistics, installation, operations/maintenance of active wind farms, and de-commissioning. Such activities are often spread out across countries or regions, and require long-distance transportation of parts, components, or modules. Wind turbines are growing in size and weight, requiring specialized equipment and handling. Each onshore or offshore wind farm project requires tailor-made shipping and logistics solutions as installation sites are unique. Wind turbine manufacturers and/or utility companies owning the wind farms therefore face several practical challenges regarding shipping and logistics activities which also make up significant costs for them while simultaneously posing an increasingly attractive revenue opportunity for shipping and logistics service companies.

  • Corporate Non-Financial Reporting in Germany
    Copyright © Development International e.V., 2019 ISBN: 978-3-9820398-1-7 Authors: Chris N. Bayer, PhD Gisella Vogel Sarah Kaltenhäuser Katherine Storrs Jiahua (Java) Xu, PhD Juan Ignacio Ibañez, LL.M. Title: A New Responsibility for Sustainability: Corporate Non-Financial Reporting in Germany Date published: May 6, 2019 Funded by: iPoint-systems gmbh www.ipoint-systems.com Executive Summary Germany's economy is the fourth-largest in the world (by nominal GDP), and with 28% of the euro area market, it represents the largest economy in Europe.1 Considering the supply chains leading to its economy, Germany's cumulative environmental, social and governance performance reverberates globally. The EU Non-Financial Reporting Directive (NFRD) is the impetus behind this study – a new regulation that seeks to “increase the relevance, consistency and comparability of information disclosed by certain large undertakings and groups across the Union.”2 Large undertakings in EU member states are not only required to report on their financial basics, now they are also required by Article 1 of the Directive to account for their non- financial footprint, including adverse impacts they have on the environment and supply chains. In accordance with the Directive, the German transposition stipulates that the non-financial declaration must state which reporting framework was used to create it (or explain why no framework was applied), as well as apply non-financial key performance indicators relevant to the particular business. These requirements are our point of departure: We systematically assess the degree of non-financial transparency and performance reporting for 2017 applying an ex-post assessment framework premised on the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI), the German Sustainability Code (Deutscher Nachhaltigkeitskodex, DNK) and the United Nations Global Compact (UNGC).

  • Nordex Group Announces New N149/5.X Turbine
    PRESS RELEASE Entering the 5 MW class: Nordex Group announces new N149/5.X turbine Powerful addition to the Delta4000 series presented in 2017 Hamburg, 26 March 2019. The Nordex Group is extending its product portfolio with a multi-megawatt machine in the 5 MW class. After the N149/4.0-4.5 and the N133/4.8, the new N149/5.X is the third turbine type in the Delta4000 series. The N149/5.X is designed for moderate and light-wind areas and can also perform optimally at sites with complex requirements. Apart from the classic core markets in Europe, the target markets for the N149/5.X also cover global growth regions such as South Africa, Australia and South America. The N149/5.X is designed for maximum flexibility and can be operated in different modes in the 5 MW range depending on site requirements and customer needs. This enables customers to individually configure the wind farm in terms of the output, capacity and lifetime of the turbine, as well as with regard to sound requirements, and thus adapt it ideally to the company's respective business model. The N149/5.X is a logical progression based on the successful approach of a flexible power range in the N149/4.0-4.5. "Thanks to the proven technological basis of the Delta4000 product series we are in a position to continuously develop highly efficient solutions for different wind regimes and different geographical regions and to ensure short lead times for product launches. We have designed the N149/5.X with its maximum flexibility and efficiency to exactly meet the needs of our customers," says José Luis Blanco, CEO Nordex Group.

The Group unites the two formerly in- dependent manufacturers – Acciona Windpower and Nordex – which complement each other per- fectly. Whereas Acciona Windpower generates employees 2017 at the reporting date, the majority of its revenues from major projects in growth markets, Nordex focuses its business 2016: 5,129 employees activities on Europe. By bundling these business activities, we cover around 90 percent of the markets (excluding China) for onshore systems. As both sections of our Company have different focus areas we can offer suitable wind turbines to meet very different requirements. Our manu- facturing network includes facilities in Germany, Spain, Brazil and India. In 2017 we also estab- lished a technology center in Denmark for rotor energy consumption per installed blade development. Nordex’s focus lies not only capacity 2017 in kWh / MW, on sustainable economic growth but also on 2016: 22,819 kWh / MW taking responsibility and countering the chal- lenges posed by climate change. Our Sustain- ability Strategy forms the foundation for our actions, entitled: ‘Use wind intelligently – live sustainability’.
