Our history
windiwse is transforming Namibia’s renewable energy landscape by establishing local wind turbine manufacturing facilities with advanced European technology, aiming for energy self-sufficiency and local job creation. The windwise team has more than 300 years of cumulated experience in the wind industry:
- Design & development of multi-MW wind turbines and components.
- Industrialization: set-up of manufacturing facilities, supply chain and quality assurance.
- Technical operation of the wind turbines.
Why wind turbines?
Windturbines and solar panels are the number one renewable energy supply in desert areas. While solar panels only work efficiently one third of the day from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m, wind turbines can supply power around the clock, independent of fog or clouds.
Our Namibian Story
…started in 2021 when the Ambassador of Namibia to Germany, his Excellency Martin Andjaba and the Commercial Attaché, Mrs Lucia Radovanovic visited windwise in Germany: Their proposal to visit Namibia was accepted by windwise, being the reason for us being in Namibia today.

Building Communities
At windwise, our goals are aligned with the needs and aspirations of Namibia:
Our Maxcap Wind Turbine Generator (WTG) is designed to deliver steady and reliable power.
STABLE POWER OUTPUT
Stable Power Output: The Maxcap WTG is engineered to ensure consistent energy production, thanks to its high number of full-load hours (FLH). This means you get reliable power without the usual peaks and troughs.
OPTIMIZED FOR LOW WIND SPEEDS
Optimized for Low Wind Speeds: Our turbines are specifically designed for decentralized installations in areas with low wind speeds, making them perfect for various environments.
REDUCED GRID DEPENDENCE
Reduced Grid Dependence: By generating stable power, our turbines help reduce the need for additional balancing power from the grid, leading to more efficient energy use.
Versatile Applications
Versatile Applications: The Maxcap WTG is ideal for several applications,
including:
- Hydrogen Production: Contributing to green hydrogen initiatives.
- Desalination: Supporting sustainable water supply solutions.
Rural - Electrification: Providing power to off-grid and rural areas.
