Project procurement and collaboration

Many of our projects have sprung from partnerships. The individual strengths of our partners make our alliances successful: local presence and know-how on the one hand, and network, experience and financial strength on the other.

We realised numerous projects together with regional partners at an early date in our core market in Germany – from small engineering offices to large project developers. Skills such as financing and structuring experience, planning know-how or local connections complement each other perfectly.

We consistently realise new projects time and again with different planners and are able to rely on a comprehensive, diverse and vivid network. Thanks to business relationships of trust stretching back many years as a major customer – for example of turbine manufacturers or suppliers of electrical infrastructure as well as of banks – we are able to implement projects reliably and quickly. This strength in implementing projects is becoming increasingly important in view of the shifting underlying conditions.

In a collaboration, we are able to

  • provide finance, take on risk and support our partners in planning with our specialist departments.
  • even bring tough permission processes to a successful conclusion with our many years of expertise.
  • implementing infrastructure together with partners or independently.
  • provide the turbines at the time of approval and guarantee the finance as soon as the permit is released.

„Over half of all wind projects require a strong anchor investor as well as a regional project developer. wpd has distinguished itself here as a reliable partner in numerous projects and offers us great experience in the areas of development, finance, construction and operation.“
