About Siemens Gamesa Renewable Energy in Hull

Siemens Gamesa Renewable Energy in Hull is at the centre of the UK’s renwable sector. The state-of-the-art factory began production in September 2016 after a build of only 21 months, opening 3 months ahead of schedule. The production line creates the 75 metre long blades for Siemens Gamesa’s market-leading 7Mw Direct Drive offshore wind turbines. Each 28 tonne blade is fabricated, finished and inspected by hand. Siemens Gamesa employs around 1,000 people at the Alexandra Dock site, with over 97% of employees living within 30 miles. Blades and the other essential components necessary to build an offshore wind turbine are loaded at the bespoke three-berth dock, ready for shipping out via the Humber estuary.
