Wind Power

Welcome to the Wind Power News Review – hosted by Windpower Monthly senior reporter, Robyn White, and Windpower Monthly editor, Ian Griggs – along with our regular panellists, Sorcha Versteeg and Shashi Barla.

This time on the News Review, we take a look at the US, where Donald Trump has once again launched attacks on offshore wind. With the sector only just beginning to recover, we explore what these latest developments could mean for the industry and its future prospects.

Secondly, we examine Nordex’s latest financial results. What does the improved outlook tell us about the company's wider position in the wind market and the challenges and opportunities ahead?

Lastly, we turn to a new wind turbine concept that challenges the industry's long-standing assumption that three blades are the most effective design.

The Wind Power podcast speaks to Ibrahim Oezarslan, chief commercial officer at Nordex, about how the turbine firm has achieved its recent financial turnaround.

Recorded at WindEnergy Hamburg conference last month, Oezarslan discusses how Nordex intends to maintain its new momentum and which markets it is targeting in Europe and beyond.

Also on the agenda was how the turbine firm intends to manage reduced prices in Germany’s onshore wind auctions, whether the US is a safe wind market and whether cybersecurity concerns justify calling for non-Western turbine makers to be banned from selling their products within the EU.

We explore to what extent these new designs can impact the onshore wind industry.

Secondly, the panel and hosts discuss our experiences at the recent WindEnergy Hamburg 2026 conference in Germany, comparing notes on the prevalent themes and talking points from one of the industry’s biggest events.

Windpower Monthly took to the conference floor to ask delegates what they have learned so far from attending WindEnergy Hamburg 2026.

Delegates, including GWEC policy analyst Joyce Lee, talked about fostering a spirit of collaboration between global regions, the need to see more women represented on conference panels and the sheer number of firms involved in the construction of wind projects.

The interviewees also spoke about their personal motivations for joining the wind industry and what it means to them.
