The wind industry's high export figures correspond to a growth of approx. 20 pct. compared to 2007, where the industry exported a total of 4.7 billion Euros of Danish wind turbine technology abroad. This means that the wind power industry exports amounted to 7.2 pct. of the total Danish exports in 2008.The Danish Wind Industry Association has just published the annual industry statistics for 2008 which show that the industry last year had a 5.7 billion Euros export of wind technology and had 28,400 employed in the sector at the end of 2008. Thus 2008 was again a record year for the wind industry and it is now among the biggest export industries in Denmark. Since then the financial crisis has turned the "world upside down" - and 2009 looks far more bleak than just a few months ago. "It went well for the export of Danish energy technology and it went particularly well for the wind industry's exports in 2008 as it accounted for more than 70 pct. of the total Danish exports of energy technology", notes Jan Hylleberg and continues, "It is particularly derived from the fact that Danish suppliers are increasingly exporting components and services to foreign producers. The Danish producers have been global for years. Now the Danish suppliers are greatly after it and it is a trend I think we will continue to see."
The Danish Wind Industry Association has just published the annual industry statistics for 2007 and for the industry, the authorities and the green Denmark it is impressive reading. With a total export of 4.7 billion euros in 2007, the Danish wind industry sets another record, compared to the year before, an increase on 1.1 billion euros or a 30.7 % growth.There are 2 items tagged with export.
