One of the fastest growing industrial sectors is the wind power industry. In 2023 alone, 54 countries around the world built new wind farms with a total capacity of 117 GW, increasing the world’s installed capacity by 50% compared to 2022. The forecast growth between 2024 and 2030 is 1210 GW.

One of the challenges of the wind industry is the progressive increase in the power of wind turbines, which causes a greater load to be supported to guide both the blades and the rotor.

Santa FE ECS has experience in the calculation and design of planetary gearboxes for the wind power industry with a nominal torque of up to 1200000 Nm.
