Volkswind / About us / Who we are

We bring wind energy into your life

Wind energy is one of the cornerstones of a sustainable energy supply. That is why Volkswind has been focussing on the generation of clean electricity from onshore wind farms with passion and a pioneering spirit for over three decades. Day after day, our experts work to further expand wind energy in Europe. Today, Volkswind is one of the most experienced developers in the wind energy sector. Years of experience in project management, our technical know-how and our commercial expertise are the basis of our success.

Volkswind stands for the entire value chain in generation from renewable sources. By bundling all our competences, we are able to offer all services relating to the planning of energy parks from a single source : from technical planning, financing and construction to operational management, we are a competent partner.

Today, over 90 wind farms developed and built by Volkswind, representing a total installed capacity of almost 1,600 megawatts in Europe, produce green electricity from wind energy. We plan to expand our wind power capacity in the next few years. 

To achieve this ambitious goal, around 200 employees in Germany, France, Finland and Romania are committed to the energy transition every day. Our international team consists of specialists from a wide variety of fields: Engineers, business economists, accountants and many other experts work hand in hand to create new wind farms and ensure the smooth operation of our plants. Despite the diversity of languages, cultures and countries of origin, all employees are united by a common vision: to increase the share of wind energy in the energy mix and drive forward the climate transition.

Our parent company Axpo supports us in achieving our goals with its financial strength and expertise in the energy industry: Axpo is the largest Swiss producer of renewable energy and an international pioneer in energy trading and the marketing of solar and wind power.
