Enercon GmbH is one of the world's largest manufacturers of wind turbines. The largest manufacturer of wind turbines in Germany. In 2007, Enercon held 50.3% of the German market and 14% of the world market for wind turbines.

Enercon produces industrial wind generators with power from 330 kW. Up to 7.58 MW. The main feature of Enercon wind generators is the lack of a transmission and a ring generator.

ENERCON began its journey to economic/ecological success when graduate engineer Aloys Wobben founded the company in 1984. A small team of engineers developed the first E-15/16 wind turbine with a nominal output of 55 kW. At first, ENERCON systems still featured gearboxes. However, in 1992, the transition to gearless technology took place with the first ENERCON E-40/500 kW. This innovative drive system with few rotating parts ensures an almost frictionless energy flow, offering outstanding performance and reliability. Mechanical strain, operating and maintenance costs are reduced, and the service life of the system is increased.

Today, all ENERCON wind power converters are based on the company's tried and tested turbine concept. In recent years, new generations of systems have evolved through the constant sophistication of existing components, offering customers state-of-the-art products. An example of the latest technological innovation is the new rotor blade geometry introduced in 2004. It significantly increases revenue, minimizes noise emissions, while considerably reducing the load impact on the wind power converter.

All ENERCON systems feature a grid connection system that meets current grid connection requirements and can therefore be easily integrated into any power and distribution structure. The ENERCON concept not only offers solutions for normal operation, such as reactive power management and voltage control, but also for critical situations resulting from short circuits or grid blockages.

Since then, ENERCON has been setting new standards in technological design for 30 years. With over 22,000 wind turbines installed in over 30 countries, ENERCON is also recognized as one of the leading manufacturers internationally. Research and development, as well as production and sales, are constantly evolving.
