Embattled turbine OEM Senvion almost doubled installations to 546MW in the first half of 2019.

The Germany-based company said the figure – up 89% compared to 289MW in the same period of 2018 – showed it was successfully focusing on execution “in challenging circumstances”.

Most of the growth came in emerging markets such as Latin America and Australia, which Senvion is relying on as part of a turnaround strategy unveiled by CEO Yves Rannou.

Senvion entered insolvency in self-administration in April, sending ripples along its own supply chain.

It is currently understood to be in talks over potential new investment.
