WIND-consult becomes part of TÜV NORD GROUP

On 5 June 2025, WIND-consult has become part of the TÜV NORD GROUP. The Rostock-based company is a specialised provider for measurements on wind turbines, wind assessments and measurements as well as inspection services. The measurement institute thus complements the broad range of services offered by TÜV NORD GROUP. TÜV NORD GROUP becomes the sole shareholder of WIND-consult and also acquires the existing 50% share in Ammonit Wind Tunnel. 

WIND-consult is a DAkkS-accredited measurement institute for wind energy and has been offering measurements, reports and inspections for wind turbines and sites for over 30 years. WIND-consult has been active in MEASNET for many years, is a recognised IECRE test laboratory and a notified measuring body in accordance with §29b BImSchG. In addition, WIND-consult provides highly specialised services such as measurement of the rotor geometry and the blade pitch in Europe, the US, China and the APAC region. 

Ammonit Wind Tunnel is a specialist provider of calibration and testing services for flow sensors, including anemometers and wind vanes. Its accredited calibration wind tunnel can generate flow speeds of up to 30 m/s – equivalent to a violent storm with a wind force of 11. 

Working together for strategic growth 

‘Together, we achieve a leading position in site assessment for the German and international wind market. Additionally, we are strengthening our broad range of services with technical measurements of wind turbines,’ says Alexander Ohff, Executive Vice President Renewables at TÜV NORD. ‘We are happy to have won over WIND-consult as an experienced partner with a high-quality reputation on the market.’ 

‘WIND-consult has found a strategic shareholder and reliable partner in TÜV NORD with whom we will achieve continuous growth in our markets,’ says Dietmar Wüstenberg, Managing Director of WIND-consult. ‘Together with the TÜV NORD teams, we can execute international projects even better from our location near Rostock.’ 

WIND-consult will continue to operate under its established brand with Dietmar Wüstenberg and Joachim Schwabe remaining as managing directors. Ammonit Wind Tunnel's shareholding and management will also remain unchanged.
