By implementing new structures in Nordex’s service system and logistics, the company wants to increase availability for its wind turbines.
Since the end of 2005, it has set up service points at roughly 50 locations in the immediate vicinity of Nordex wind farms in Germany, holding supplies of frequently used spares and consumables for its turbines. At the same time, a central service depot for turbine components including large-scale items has been established in Rostock. The sites are electronically linked to the central replacement part depot and the field service teams via an information system. Nordex will be implementing its new logistics model in other European markets in the course of 2006. The service points are already being established in France.
