Profile: Wind Energy Agency Bremerhaven/Bremen (WAB)
• Association with over 210 members from industry, services and science from Bremen/Oldenburg and surrounding coastal region
• Companies from a broad industry spectrum, covering full value chain
• Partly funded by the Federal State of Bremen (≈30%) to facilitate innovation and structural change
• Focus on:- Offshore- Repowering- Network / cluster development

Drivers for Wind Cluster Development in NW-Germany
• Offshore development is strongest driver
• Onshore turbine size is driver- Nearby port logistics needed for export
• Growing size and maturity of industry sector- Now ≈ 100,000 jobs in wind industry in Germany- Large industrial players have entered market
• Economic Crisis - Since 2008 many newcomers with significant capabilities and
capacities enter market in the region

alpha ventus: a Lighthouse project for Northwest Wind Cluster
• Very high contribution from Northwest-Germany by WAB-members
• 12 Turbines - 60 MW rated power- 2009: 6 Multibrid M5000 (installed on
tripods)- 2009: 6 Repower 5M
• Operated by „DOTI“-consortium: utilities EWE, E.ON, Vattenfall
• Grid connection installed 2008 and operational
• „Catalyst“ function for industry

Regional Strategy behind Offshore Development
• Provide locations for prototypes
• Provide specialised offshore port infrastructure- Bremerhaven- Cuxhaven- ...
• Facilitate regional networking structures to build „critical mass“
- WAB e.V. - industry- ForWind - research
• Strong long-term political backing
