ENERTRAG Service opens "storage facility" at the Dauerthal energy campus

The name "Speicher" was chosen deliberately: as a place of safety and precaution, it not only holds material, but also preserves knowledge and passes it on. In the training and education rooms, trainees and career changers are prepared for working on wind turbines in a practical way and experienced specialists are regularly further qualified.

Around 50 service technicians will work, learn and develop at the site. ENERTRAG Service is currently training twelve trainees. In this way, the company is meeting the increasing demand for skilled workers and creating long-term prospects in the region.

The storage system strengthens the performance of ENERTRAG Service, the development of skilled workers and regional value creation. The state of Brandenburg funded the project with around 1.5 million euros through the Investment Bank of the State of Brandenburg.

Guests from politics, business and the region took part in the opening. In addition to ENERTRAG representatives, Brandenburg's Minister of Economic Affairs Martina Klement, Uckermark's District Administrator Karina Dörk and ENERTRAG founder and Chairman of the Supervisory Board Jörg Müller spoke. Together, the participants cut the ribbon in front of the service hall.

Martina Klement, Minister for Economic Affairs, Energy, Climate Protection and Europe of the State of Brandenburg, emphasises the regional importance: "The opening of the so-called storage facility shows that ENERTRAG is taking responsibility for the future of the company and its employees with investments, training and new structures. Material, knowledge and qualification come together here in one place, creating the prerequisites for efficient service and at the same time securing skilled workers. The fact that the company is focusing on Dauerthal and the Uckermark region in the long term is a strong commitment to the entire region and an important contribution to regional value creation locally."

Dr. Anne Bendzulla, member of the board at ENERTRAG, emphasizes the importance of knowledge transfer: "Spare parts alone do not keep a wind turbine running. The decisive factor is the people who pass on their knowledge to future generations and thus ensure that our turbines reliably supply electricity. This is exactly what this place does: it combines technology with experience and turns individual movements into real skills for our service in the Uckermark."

Jan Neuhann, Managing Director of ENERTRAG Service GmbH, explains: "The storage system brings together parts, knowledge and training in one place. In this way, we combine fast material supply, practical qualification and a clear commitment to the Dauerthal location. We are particularly proud of our training centre, where we prepare young people and career changers for the requirements of the energy transition."

With the new storage facility, ENERTRAG is further developing the Dauerthal Energy Campus into a central location for service, training and regional value creation – and making the energy transition visible and tangible locally.
