Turbine operations and maintenance (O&M) outfit Deutsche Windtechnik is pushing into the US, hoping to help shape the changing market landscape with its independent full-scope, multi-brand offering.

The German-headquartered company, which currently services machines from Vestas/NEG Micon, Siemens/AN Bonus, Nordex, Senvion, Fuhrländer and Gamesa in Europe, is angling to making inroads in the US using "flexible" maintenance contracts that give operators "decisive influence over the profitability of a project".
