25 Basque companies participated in the WindEurope Hamburg Expo 2018, the most important event of the year for the international wind power sector, from 25th to 28th September. 12 of them had their own stand on the joint stand organised by the Basque Energy Cluster under the Wind Energy Basque Country brand. This edition is the prelude to WindEurope Bilbao, which will be held from 2nd to 4th April 2019 at the BEC and which will turn the city into the wind power world capital next year.
The "Wind Energy Basque Country" joint stand grouped together the technological and industrial capacities of 12 first rate Basque companies, forming the Basque pavilion comprising the following exhibiting companies: ANTEC, ERREKA, EUSKALFORGING, GLUAL, HAIZEA WIND, HINE, IRIZAR FORGE, KIMUA GROUP, LAULAGUN BEARINGS, MAXWIND, NAUTILUS and WINDBOX. The Basque Energy Cluster was in charge of the stand and had its own space to promote the capacities of the Basque wind power's value chain, through initiatives such as WINDBOX, the Basque wind power's Advanced Manufacturing Centre and the Hazitek HARSH, FLOW and MODEOL projects.
A networking cocktail was held on Wednesday 26th in the Basque pavilion, which was attended by Iñigo Ansola, General Director of EVE and Xabier Basañez, General Director of the BEC, who had the opportunity to discover the developments and projects of Basque companies participating in the event first hand, accompanied by the Director of the Basque Energy Cluster, José Ignacio Hormaeche.
They also took the opportunity to report on the forthcoming edition of WindEurope in Bilbao, which will be a unique opportunity to showcase the Basque industry in a growing wind power sector. The Basque Country has more than 100 companies that offer products and services in the different segments of the wind power value chain: components and systems manufacturers for the wind turbine, installation and maintenance services companies, digital solutions developers, engineering firms, technology centres, etc.
