New Managing Director in Danish Wind Industry Association

"Jan Hylleberg comes from an industry very similar to the wind industry in many ways. Like the pharmaceutical industry, the wind industry is also strongly regulated with similar challenges like the need to demonstrate, test and develop products. We need to work closely with the local and national politicians to ensure stable framework conditions, so the industry can keep the competitive edge on international markets", says DWIA President Peter Brun.

He also emphasizes the important job of continuing to develop and improve one of the strongest industry associations in Denmark. More than 400 wind related companies are located in Denmark. Adding a leading research and education environment, Denmark houses a unique competence cluster in the global wind energy community.

"DWIA members can look forward to welcoming a dynamic director who will continue the work to improve conditions for the entire Danish wind industry. I am certain that he will strengthen the association, so we will have an even stronger position in time for the climate change conference in Copenhagen next year", Peter Brun continues,

"The climate conference will give international decision makers a demonstration of how Denmark integrates 20 pct. wind generated electricity - posing wind as one of the key solutions in the global warming discussion."
