Siemens has officially opened a new wind power training center in Bremen, Germany. The training center is an important part of the European service headquarters for wind power in Bremen and, together with three other training facilities in Europe and the U.S., meets Siemens global training needs for wind power services.
The new Siemens training center offers a wide variety of qualification and training options covering all aspects relating to the technology and operational reliability, an important contribution toward the reliable, efficient operation of wind turbines over the long term. The central feature of the new training center is the original-nacelle of a Siemens 2.3-MW wind turbine. A simulator, ladder structures, electrical and hydraulic modules, and a maintenance crane make training possible under virtually realistic conditions.
“We see service as much more than a regular look into the nacelle. And precisely because we attach such importance to service, we have decided to set up a training center for our service team here in Bremen,“ said René Umlauft, CEO of the Renewable Energy Division of Siemens Energy. “Here we also want to give our customers the opportunity to have their personnel trained in line with the latest developments.”
Wind turbines and the associated services are important features of the Siemens environmental portfolio. In 2008, revenue from the products and solutions of Siemens environmental portfolio was nearly EUR19 billion, equivalent to around a quarter of Siemens total revenue.
