The sale of Vestas’ converters and controls business has been completed and marks the transfer of Vestas’ three converters and controls factories to KK Wind Solutions (KK). It is planned that around 600 of Vestas’ colleagues are to join KK.

As part of the partnership between Vestas and KK, KK will supply converters and control panels to Vestas, and the partnership aims to further advance co-development of all future Vestas converters.

KK Wind Solutions and Vestas have agreed on several transactional service agreements to ensure business continuity, knowledge transfer and stable operations throughout the integration period.

Tommy Rahbek Nielsen, Executive Vice President and COO at Vestas said: “I’m very excited about the next chapter of our partnership with KK Wind Solutions, and I look forward to growing and maturing the wind energy supply chain together. I would also like to extend my deepest appreciation to our dedicated and skilled colleagues, who will join KK. You have done an outstanding job, and I know you will continue doing so together with your new colleagues at KK”.
