We are a global company focused on innovative and sustainable solutions to decarbonize and electrify the world. In 2024, we accounted for approximately 27% of all onshore wind blades on a MW-basis globally, excluding China.1 This year we had $1.3 billion in net sales and produced 6,525 wind blades. We are enabling many of the industry’s leading wind turbine original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) to outsource the manufacturing of a larger portion of their wind blades, thus expanding their global wind blade capacity. We manufacture advanced composite wind blades to our customers’ specifications in facilities designed, built, and strategically located either near our customers’ target markets or in low-cost, world-class locations, to minimize total delivered cost. We have leveraged our footprint and thousands of capable associates to build a global team of experienced technicians to provide best-in-class wind blade service capabilities, including preventative services, inspections, repairs, and improvements.
