Investing in used wind turbines: opportunities, risks and challenges
The energy transition and the global focus on renewable energies have significantly increased interest in wind turbines. In addition to the construction of new turbines, the market for used wind turbines is becoming increasingly important. Investors see both economic and ecological advantages in this. Nevertheless, it is important to carefully consider the specific opportunities, risks and challenges of this segment.
Odds
Cost effectiveness Used wind turbines offer a cost-effective alternative to new construction. The acquisition costs are significantly lower than those of new systems, which reduces capital commitment and can increase the profitability of the investment. This is particularly attractive for projects with limited budgets or for entry into the wind energy industry.
Faster project implementation Since used systems are already produced and often available at short notice, the planning and installation phase is significantly shortened. This enables rapid commissioning and earlier revenue streams from electricity production.
Contribution to resource conservation The reuse of existing equipment contributes to the conservation of resources and reduces the ecological footprint. This is in line with sustainable investment strategies and can have a positive impact on the environmental balance.
Risks
Technical condition and remaining service life The wear and tear and remaining life of used equipment can vary. Without thorough technical inspection, there is a risk of unexpected maintenance costs or breakdowns. Investors should therefore invest in comprehensive appraisals in order to know the exact condition of the investments.
Regulatory uncertainties Changes in legislation, especially with regard to subsidies and feed-in tariffs, can affect profitability. Used systems could be excluded from current subsidy programs or subject to stricter requirements. A precise knowledge of local regulations is therefore essential.
Logistical challenges The dismantling, transport and reconstruction of wind turbines requires careful planning and can be associated with significant costs. Unforeseen logistical issues can put a strain on the project schedule and budget.
Challenges
Identification of suitable plants The search for suitable used wind turbines can be time-consuming. A structured marketplace can support this by bundling offers and presenting them transparently. This allows investors to find suitable investments more efficiently.
Ensuring the seriousness of offers Not all offers on the market are reputable or meet expectations. It is essential to check the credibility of sellers and ensure that all legal and technical documentation is in place. A trusted marketplace can support this through verification processes.
Financing and insurance Financing used assets can be more complex than new investments, as banks may see higher risks. In addition, insurance can be more expensive or more difficult to obtain due to the age of the investments. It is therefore important to clarify these aspects at an early stage.
