Danish Prime Minister Helle Thorning-Schmidt helped to usher in a new era for Siemens Wind Power with the world’s largest testing facility for wind turbines, featuring Instron systems.

With locations in Aalborg and Brande, the new Siemens testing center is a global leader due to its footprint comprising over 27,000 square meters and its advanced testing abilities. The facility is part of a one billion krone investment in Denmark’s wind turbine industry.
