DSV Panalpina a world leader in transport and logistics services, have formed a strategic partnership on transport and logistics and has now become Vestas Wind Systems strategic partner.

Logistics and transport are a key element of the Vestas value chain - company which has production facilities on four continents and nearly 70,000 wind turbines located in 80 countries. Cooperation with DSV Panalpina will allow to combine specialist logistics knowledge and the operator's global reach with Vestas' previous transport experience.

Transport and logistics are becoming an increasingly complex and demanding challenge for Vestas due to the growing demand for wind energy in many parts of the world. At the same time, components are becoming larger and the locations are becoming more distant. For this reason, Vestas aims to simplify its global transport configuration by working with only one logistics partner.

Following the announcement of Vestas’ ambition to become carbon neutral by 2030, the partnership also includes a mutual commitment to reduce and eliminate CO2 emissions related to transport and logistics.
