Today, I’m stepping down from my role as CEO of @SiemensGamesa. A big thank you to our customers and partners for their trust, collaboration, and support. And special thanks to #TeamPurple for their hard work, commitment, and resilience throughout our journey together. With the foundations set, it is time for the team to move ahead under the leadership of Vinod Philip, Member of the Executive Board of @Siemens_Energy, responsible for the Wind Power business Siemens Gamesa. I wish Team Purple and Vinod all the best.

In Memoriam of Agustin Escobar and his beloved family. They passed away in a tragic accident in NYC. He was a good man. A loving husband, caring father and responsible manager. This tragedy tells us, not to waste time with things which don’t matter. Any day could be our last one.

It’s always special to experience our technologies firsthand. Especially, when you’re standing atop one of our @SiemensGamesa wind turbines more than 150 meters above the ground. When I look at our wind turbines, I don’t just see a product. I see the results of the dedication and hard work of #TeamPurple. Their skills, expertise, passion, collaboration, and commitment make our vision a reality. And their work matters. Our technology helps power the world sustainably. And that’s what we’re working on every day. After all, there’s no energy transition without wind energy. Together, we are making an impact. #MoreWindNow

Over the past year, with the European Wind Power Action Plan, the European Wind Charter, and the Net Zero Industry Act, we have made progress in establishing the frameworks necessary for #MoreWindNow in Europe. Now, it’s about implementation. We need faster permitting, auction designs that emphasize qualitative non-price criteria, a level playing field, reduced financial burdens on the wind industry, access to public funding, and expanded grid infrastructure. Only then can we achieve #NetZero. We at @SiemensGamesa are committed to the energy transition. And with continued dedication from policymakers, industry, and partners, we can pave the way with wind energy to achieve a secure and sustainable future. #GlobalWindDay

Our goal at @SiemensGamesa: Break even in fiscal year 2026. To do so, we must deliver together. This was the message of our Siemens Gamesa Leadership Conference 2024, where more than 270 leaders and talents came together to discuss how to deliver together as one, and how to lead in times of change. To symbolize our connection and dedication in delivering our turnaround together, we built the Siemens Gamesa value chain, with each of us attaching snap hooks together to represent our collective strength. We as #TeamPurple are committed to shaping the energy transition, and to driving our organization forward together.

Populism and extremism are a threat to the very fabric of our democracies. But instead of succumbing to fear and division we have the power to choose togetherness, openness, diversity, and tolerance. These values form the foundations of a united Europe. They grant us freedom, stability, and justice, and are essential for prosperity. That’s why, as part of @Siemens_Energy, we at @SiemensGamesa stand firmly with the #WeStandForValues initiative, an alliance of more than 30 German companies advocating for a united Europe. The stakes are high and it’s our responsibility to exercise our voting privileges. Our future depends on it. #UseYourVote

Congratulations to @Orsted, #TeamPurple, and everyone else behind the inauguration of the Greater Changhua 1 and 2a wind power plants in Taiwan. 111 @SiemensGamesa offshore wind turbines will provide up to one million households with clean electricity annually. This achievement would not have been possible without the hard work and dedication of all those involved. #MoreWindNow #RenewableEnergy

It will take courage, conviction, and radical collaboration for wind energy to contribute to tripling global renewable energy capacity by 2030. That is according to the Global Wind Report 2024, which was published today by @GWECGlobalWind. At @SiemensGamesa, and through our GWEC membership as part of @Siemens_Energy, we will continue to closely cooperate with our partners in the wind industry as well as policymakers in Europe and across the world. There is much more to be done if we are to reach the global target of tripling renewable energy by 2030.

This week #WindEurope2024 is bringing more than 12,000 wind aficionados to Bilbao: from manufacturers like @SiemensGamesa to our customers and suppliers; from policymakers to investors and senior leaders from all walks of wind-energy life. The good news for 2024: We have a map to get to our goals – the #EuropeanWindPowerActionPlan, the #NetZeroIndustryAct, and unprecedented pledges to promote wind energy, including the Spanish Wind Energy Charter, which was signed today at @WindEurope. Our success now hinges on the details and their well-coordinated, accelerated implementation across Europe. Thank you to @WindEuropeEvent, my fellow event ambassadors, and #TeamPurple for organizing this indispensable, first-class annual event. @Siemens_Energy #RenewableEnergy #MoreWindNow

Être témoin du dévouement des 1 300 collègues #TeamPurple sur notre site du Havre a été une source d’inspiration. Nos discussions sur l’orientation future de @SiemensGamesa ont été instructives.   J’ai également rencontré @RolandLescure, ministre français de l’industrie et de l’énergie, pour discuter des récents développements du secteur éolien en France et en Europe. Merci à tous ceux qui travaillent sur notre site du Havre. Prochaine étape : #WindEurope2024 à Bilbao. Restez à l'écoute ! #MoreWindNow #WindEnergy #EnergySecurity #OffshoreWind

With 1,300 #TeamPurple colleagues working at our site in Le Havre, it was good to see their dedication in action today. I greatly appreciated our discussions about where we at @SiemensGamesa are headed.   I’ve also had the opportunity to meet with @RolandLescure, France’s Minister for Industry and Energy. We talked about the recent developments in France’s wind energy landscape and the European wind industry – in particular about what needs to be done to bring the measures to life that are part of the European Wind Power Package and the Net Zero Industry Act.    Thanks to everyone at our Le Havre site. Next stop: #WindEurope2024 in Bilbao. I will keep you posted.   #MoreWindNow #WindEnergy #EnergySecurity #OffshoreWind

Europe’s wind industry and our path to profitability in a promising market. That – and more – is what I recently talked about with Mark Dooley at @Macquarie's #gec2024 in London. You can watch the full playback of our discussion at linkedin.com/events/7169092…

We risk health and safety when we gender-stereotype jobs. My colleagues Sophie Ash and Matt Scaum at @SiemensGamesa have taken proactive steps to address this issue. During an offshore training, Sophie discovered that personal protective equipment (PPE) is generally only available in sizes typically suitable for men. The photo of Sophie standing next to our colleague Gareth Brandrick clearly shows that PPE is not a one size fits all. Determined to address the lack of suitable PPE, especially for women, Sophie and Matt took action. Their efforts led to a dozen of PPE providers committing to inclusivity. In addition, our contracts now require at least two of the smallest and largest sizes of PPE to be available at trainings. These are important steps toward progress, and we thank Sophie and Matt for their valuable contributions. This #IWD2024 serves as a reminder that there’s still a long way to go to achieve true gender equity. #InternationalWomensDay #IWD

We at @SiemensGamesa are dedicated to building an ecosystem, in which customers and suppliers, investors, policymakers, the people of #TeamPurple, and society at large pull in one direction: toward clean energy for generations to come. That is what I talked about today at the Muenchner Management Kolloquium, Germany’s largest business congress. It’s the multitude of challenges in the European wind industry that calls for the deepening of strategic partnerships and the creation of resilient ecosystems. Thank you for a great conference. I’m already looking forward to next year. #MMK24 #MoreWindNow #EnergyTransition #Partnerships #Resilience

“Transitioning through challenge” was the topic of my fireside chat at yesterday’s Green Energy Conference of @Macquarie in London. A title particularly fitting for the times we’re in. To meet ambitious climate goals, countries are raising their targets for wind energy. Yet, there’s still a lot to be done to achieve those targets. Stable supply chains are crucial in getting there. We at @SiemensGamesa are reducing reliance on single markets through multiple-supplier sourcing and by encouraging our suppliers to improve their resilience. The wind industry must find a balance between global supply chains and the development of local capacities. Governments can support these efforts through commodity partnerships and trade agreements, particularly with respect to raw materials. #GEC #GEC24 #GreenEnergyConference #MoreWindNow #SupplyChain #RenewableEnergy

Wir bei @SiemensGamesa werden in die Erweiterung unserer Produktionskapazitäten investieren. Heute hat uns @OlafLies, Niedersächsischer Minister für Wirtschaft, Verkehr, Bauen und Digitalisierung, den Förderbescheid für das Projekt „WEITSICHT“ überreicht. Für diese Unterstützung durch den Bund und das Land Niedersachsen sind wir sehr dankbar. Es war mir eine Freude, Elga @BartschE, die Abteilungsleiterin für Wirtschaftspolitik im @BMWK, und Minister Olaf Lies in unserem Werk in Cuxhaven zu begrüßen. Von Cuxhaven aus werden wir die Energiewende weiter vorantreiben. Erst kürzlich haben wir hier die erste 14-MW-Gondel für den Offshore-Windpark Moray West fertiggestellt. Wir, #TeamPurple, liefern #MoreWindNow.

We at @SiemensGamesa are investing in the expansion of our production capacities. And we’re grateful for Germany’s and Lower Saxony’s support through the “WEITSICHT” funding project. I was pleased to welcome Elga @BartschE, Director General for Economic Policy at the @BMWK, and Minister @OlafLies at our plant in Cuxhaven today. We will continue to drive the energy transition from Cuxhaven. It’s where #TeamPurple just recently completed the first 14-MW nacelle for the Moray West offshore wind power plant. We’re committed to deliver #MoreWindNow.
