Denmark-based KK Wind Solutions, a subsidiary of A.P. Moller Holding, has commissioned a new factory in Bengaluru to manufacture power converters and control systems for the wind energy industry.

The factory located in Dobbaspet on the outskirts of Bengaluru was operationalized in April 2025.

The site will support engineering, manufacturing, and customer services tailored to meet growing demand in Asia and beyond.

KK Wind Solutions already has been operating an 11,000 m2 factory in Bengaluru since 2017, producing power converters and controls, and cooling solutions for the wind industry.

In 2024, the company acquired the power converters and controls business from Vestas Wind Systems, and Nissens Cooling Solutions.

The company has a portfolio of 56 GW offshore and 108 GW onshore projects globally. The company has enabled more than 164 GW of installed wind turbine capacity, with 19 GW installed in 2024. With a capacity factor of 35%, the company’s projects generated 500 TWh of renewable energy in 2024.

Global wind energy capacity saw a record 117 GW in new additions in 2024, a marginal increase from the 116.6 GW installed in 2023. According to the Global Wind Energy Council’s Global Wind Report 2025, the total wind energy capacity installed across the globe stands at 1,136 GW, Driven by explosive growth in China and steady installations in India. Asia Pacific retained its leading position with 75% of the global market share and a 7% year-over-year growth. The top five markets for new installations in 2024 were China, the U.S., Germany, India and Brazil. These five markets together contributed 81% to global additions in 2024, 1% higher than the previous year.

According to BloombergNEF’s 2024 Global Wind Turbine Market Shares, wind turbine installations reached a record capacity of 121.6 GW in 2024, double the capacity commissioned in 2019. During the year, 109.9 GW, or 90%, of global wind additions were on land, while 11.7 GW were offshore.
