Husum Wind 2025 has concluded with new prototypes and contract signings, attracting more than 12,000 visitors to participate.
Launched from 16 to 19 September in Husum, Germany, the trade fair included new product launches and turbine premieres, with leading manufacturers showcasing new prototypes, including models with significantly larger rotor diameters and higher rated outputs.
Multiple contracts were signed at the trade fair. For example, ENERCON and JUWI signed a partnership agreement for long-term collaboration on wind projects through 2030. UKA, Nordex and Max Bögl Wind AG concluded an agreement for a large-scale wind farm project, with around 20 turbines with a total capacity of over 140 MW set to be built at the Mercedes-Benz test site in Papenburg.
At the Future & Innovation Hall, highly sought-after topics were covered such as cybersecurity, AI, drone technology and data management. Mohamed Harrou, a cybersecurity expert in the Digital+ Area, emphasised: “Resilience requires robust digital infrastructures. Cybersecurity, AI and interconnected data management are no longer optional components, but essential elements for a stable energy system.”
In total, about 600 exhibitors from 23 countries participated in the event. Among the international exhibitors, Denmark, China and the Netherlands ranked at the top. Denmark, as the official partner country, contributed valuable impetus for interregional markets and cooperative projects in the North and Baltic Seas.
Other non-European exhibitors included the USA, Canada, Saudi Arabia and Thailand. Among the German federal states, Schleswig-Holstein was prominently represented, followed by North Rhine-Westphalia, Lower Saxony, Hamburg and Bavaria.
Lastly, the WINDCareer job fair attracted around 800 professionals over two days, with 29 exhibitors taking part.
“Wind energy is the strong backbone of Germany’s power system – now it is essential to stay on course with expansion, permitting, and regulatory frameworks,” said the German Wind Energy Association.
