Cristian Bogdan Dinca, an analyst at BloombergNEF, shared on LinkedIn a chart detailing wind turbine orders by manufacturer in Q3 (excluding orders in the Chinese wind power market).
Key highlights:
- Vestas had a strong performance, selling nearly 4 GW, almost double that of second-ranked Nordex.
- Suzlon ranks third, a manufacturer whose orders, if I’m not mistaken, are entirely located in India.
- Enercon is fourth with its orders 100% destined for the Americas region, which is curious for a manufacturer traditionally focused on the European market. Recently, they energized a 140-turbine wind farm in Chile.
- The position of Inox Wind is also noteworthy; an Indian manufacturer relatively unknown in these regions ranks fifth, driven by its local market.
- Absence of Siemens Gamesa, which did not sell a single megawatt in the entire quarter. The company continues to face challenges in onshore (although the SG4.X is back on the market) and has not closed any offshore contracts.
