XEMC Darwind BV, established in 2009, is a Dutch supplier of direct drive wind turbines in the multi-megawatt range. Darwind operates from its premises in Hilversum, The Netherlands. For both, the onshore and offshore markets, we have platforms available. All of them are based on the permanent magnet, direct drive technology:
Onshore solutions
- The XD137-4MW platform, suitable for wind class 2
- The XE93-2MW platform, suitable for wind class 2 and 3
Offshore solutions
- The XD115-5MW platform, suitable for wind class 1
- The XE128-5MW platform, suitable for wind class 2
As a company, Darwind was started by taking a fresh approach to the offshore wind energy market. Not only learning lessons from earlier developments in the sector but also incorporating specific industrial methodologies from other industries. With the lessons learned from earlier offshore developments and projects, Darwind started bringing top quality to the onshore market as well. This is in order to deliver a competitive commercial offer and product range including very competitive O&M offers during the lifetime of the product, resulting in a very attractive cost of energy.
Darwind is thus enabled to answer the specific demands of a rapidly expanding and globally developing market. We have the philosophy of bringing high quality products into this market.
