WIND TURBINES
Wind turbines are only truly sustainable if all the raw materials contained in them are recovered when they reach the end of their useful life. And this is an urgent matter. Countless first-generation wind turbines will soon be decommissioned.
How you benefit
Complete solutions from one company, coordinated by a single contact person.
Comprehensive recycling expertise covering all components (in our group and/or with partner firms).
Transparent reimbursement in euros per tonne.
Proof of carbon savings (Sustainability Certificate).
Perfect teamwork between all expert businesses involved.
We are able to offer you a range of services that no other business is able to match: our company carries out all the tasks itself – from dismantling the wind turbines, to transporting the components, all the way through to recovering and separating all the raw materials so they can be recycled for reuse. This holistic service is possible thanks to the effective way we coordinate the different areas of expertise within the RETHMANN Group.
A closed loop for wind turbines
In-depth expertise in the field of metal recovery and processing. Including the coordination of all the material streams.
A specialist industrial service provider that handles all tasks required for wind turbines. Including planning and
carrying out dismantling work.
The RETHMANN Group’s expert for logistics and heavy goods transport. From road, to rail, to sea and waterways.
A specialist for developing blade dismantling solutions.
A company specialising in remediation work and mineral waste that is also responsible for recovering the steel
from the wind turbines’ foundations.
TSR’s parent company with the plants and expertise to treat practically all kinds of recyclable materials.
A company specialising in recovering copper and other non-ferrous metals from cables.
Any business that is responsible for wind turbines benefits from our offering – i.e. not just manufacturers but operators as well, such as municipal utility companies, cooperatives and project development firms.
The bigger the project, the bigger the responsibility. We are committed to adhering to stringent environmental and health & safety standards – something that has also been set out in our compliance regulations. As a member of the RDRWind trade association, we have also defined the best working practices for sustainably dismantling and recycling wind turbines in the DIN SPEC 4866. This paper is currently undergoing the process to become an official DIN standard.

Depending on the quality of the material, the separated steel and iron components are either sent straight to steelworks for smelting or further dismantled and processed at a TSR plant.
The recyclable materials are recovered from all the other parts (such as the e-motor, gearbox and transformer), separated according to type and then transformed into highquality raw materials.
Working parts are made available to the wind energy sector as spare parts. Absolutely in keeping, therefore, with the principle that priority should always be given to reuse ahead of materials recycling.
The blades may make up around just one-tenth of all the material found in a wind turbine but we put all our efforts into this ten percent as well. Working together with both other companies in our group and specialised partner firms, we shred the blades into flakes so they can be used as a resource-friendly substitute building material. Moreover, we are also permanently working on developing additional recycling solutions.
