Combined with modern technology, wind power – an ancient source of energy – offers a wide range of opportunities in the areas of capacity and sustainability.
Wind energy is available globally. It has been estimated that the wind energy potential that can be utilized by means of wind power plants is over ten times the world wide electricity consumption. Wind power is fuel free energy, which does not generate emissions into the air, water or ground. Almost all parts of a wind power plant can be recycled. Ovako participates actively in furthering a more sustainable use of energy, by developing and supplying long special steel products for wind mill structures, and by developing a more environmental friendly steel production.
