Bloomberg: windmolenfabrikant GE schrapt banen om minder vraag
ANP Producties - Gisteren om 08:55
© ANP

BOSTON (ANP) - Het Amerikaanse industrieconcern General Electric (GE) gaat honderden banen schrappen bij zijn windmolentak, meldt persbureau Bloomberg op basis van ingewijden. Het bedrijf heeft last van een lagere vraag naar windturbines, met name voor de molens die op land worden geplaatst. De laatste jaren was die afdeling juist een van de best presterende binnen de divisie van GE die zich met hernieuwbare energie bezighoudt.

GE geeft aan van een vijfde van zijn personeel in de Verenigde Staten af te willen. Onduidelijkheid over Amerikaanse belastingvoordelen, die de bouw van nieuwe windmolens moeten versnellen, zorgde ervoor dat er juist minder in nieuwe windturbines werd geïnvesteerd. Ook hogere materiaalprijzen en personeelstekorten leidden tot problemen.

De reorganisatie van GE beperkt zich niet louter tot de VS. Ook in Europa en Azië moeten er banen verdwijnen, al is nog niet duidelijk hoeveel.

GE is niet de enige windmolenfabrikant die moeite heeft om winst te maken. Siemens-dochter Siemens Gamesa lijdt ook al enige tijd verlies en kondigde vorige week aan 2900 banen te schrappen.

GE Proposes Building 2 Offshore Wind Facilities in New York

Strategic Research Institute
Published on :
3 Feb, 2023, 5:59 am

GE announced has submitted a plan to construct two new manufacturing facilities in New York if it wins a sufficient volume of orders from customers in the State’s ongoing solicitation for up to 4.6 GW of offshore wind. To support localized content and New York’s vision to become the nation’s offshore wind manufacturing hub, GE proposed building the factories with Carver Companies at their Port of Coeymans site. These cutting-edge factories are designed to advance New York as the foundation of a clean energy economy while supporting the local community through durable jobs and positive economic impact:

Should GE receive sufficient order volume, LM Wind Power, a GE subsidiary, is ready to build a state-of-the-art facility to manufacture offshore wind turbine blades, creating approximately 650 direct jobs, with approximately 35% of those jobs coming from disadvantaged communities. Approximately 900 additional indirect jobs and over 500 construction jobs would be created along with millions of dollars of related economic benefits.

The two facilities would produce components for the next generation of GE’s Haliade-X offshore wind turbine. An earlier version of the Haliade-X was the first 12+ Megawatt turbine in the industry and the only one to have full type certification to operate at 14.7 MW. That model of the Haliade-X has been operating for three years and has been selected by several customers, including for the 3.6 Gigawatt Dogger Bank Wind Farm. That project will be the largest in the world when completed. Others that have selected the earlier model include the 800 MW Vineyard Wind Project that will be the first large-scale offshore wind project in the United States, and the 1100 MW Ocean Wind 1 project. The next generation model of the Haliade-X builds off the proven platform of its predecessor but contains some design changes and upgrades.

Keystone & GE Start First Spiral Welded Wind Tower

Strategic Research Institute
Published on :
28 Feb, 2023, 5:58 am

Denver Colorado headquartered Keystone Tower Systems and GE Renewable Energy have announced a major milestone in the development of tapered spiral welding with the installation of the first commercial spiral-welded wind tower on a 2.8 MW GE turbine. The tower was manufactured at Keystone’s factory in Panhandle in Pampa in Texas.

Keystone is now ramping up production of spiral welded towers, with additional deliveries targeted for Q1 of 2023. The first product is an 89-meter tall spiral welded tower for the GE 2.8-127 turbine, designed to be used interchangeably with GE’s conventional 89 meter tall tower. The spiral tower has received a component certification from TÜV NORD for a 40-year lifetime. Keystone and GE have also collaborated on a tower design for the GE’s 3 MW turbine platform and have signed a multi-year supply agreement for spiral towers from Keystone’s Pampa factory.

Keystone has adapted spiral welding to accommodate the tapered diameter, variable wall thickness, and high manufacturing quality required for wind turbine towers. A single machine completes the joining, rolling, fit-up, welding and severing of a tower section, resulting in continuous production of steel tower shells. Because it is a high throughput, compact system, tapered spiral welding provides economic benefits when operated in a factory setting, and can also be readily mobilized for temporary operations on-site for onshore supply or port-side for offshore supply.

Keystone’s tapered spiral welding process brings the speed, quality, and consistency of automated manufacturing to wind tower manufacturing. Keystone designs and builds its own custom spiral welding manufacturing equipment. The manufacturing process is designed to utilize coil steel, enabling a new segment of highly efficient domestic steel mills to supply into the wind industry.

Panhandle factory was built at an idled facility that formerly made drilling equipment for the oil and gas industry. When at full capacity the factory will be capable of producing approximately 1GW of towers per year. While this first factory is in a fixed location, Keystone is also developing mobile factories capable of building taller towers directly at the wind site, as detailed in the US Department of Energy’s May 2022 publication, “How Spiral Welding is Revolutionizing Wind Turbine Manufacturing.”
