Siemens Energy's Wind Turbine Woes Cause Stock Slump and Industry Concerns

Wind turbine builder Siemens Gamesa has discovered a "substantial increase in failure rates of wind turbine components" in its legacy fleet, with significant problems found in rotor blades and bearings in some of its onshore turbine models. The scope of the problem extends to 15-30 percent of the company's total installed fleet, and parent company Siemens Energy has suspended its profit guidance, noting the possibility of more than $1 billion in extra costs. The maintenance troubles at Siemens Gamesa could exacerbate the already-serious supply chain and inflation issues facing wind farm developers.

Siemens Energy and Gamesa face challenges with Q2 losses and adjusted outlook.

Siemens Energy's full-year financial performance expectations have been muted due to ongoing issues at wind turbine giant Siemens Gamesa, which widened its loss for the group's second quarter to €374m ($406m) before special items from a deficit of €301m a year earlier. Siemens Gamesa's profitability is being burdened by inflation, supply chain challenges, ramp-up of offshore activities, and onerous projects. The turbine manufacturer is continuing to implement a turnaround plan to address these challenges.
