The new production facility is expected to start production in mid-2017. Within the new building, Siemens will connect generators, hubs, and back-ends to assemble nacelles for offshore wind turbines.

One of the challenges of this complex large-scale project is the coordination of the building technology under time pressure.

In addition, the weather conditions at the construction site incur special demands on the project.
