Cost efficiency in renewable energy is a challenge, we must address without compromising quality. As Chairman of APQP4Wind, I believe the APQP4Wind methodology is a game-changer, driving standardization and industrialization across the industry. This approach helps to lower warranty costs and reduce the Levelized Cost of Electricity (LCoE) while ensuring consistent quality across global supply chains.

2024 was a transformative year for APQP4Wind, highlighted by the release of Manual 1.3, the successful debut of our fourth training provider, SGS, the election of our new Chairmanship, the launch of our redesigned website with exciting new features, and the continued growth of the APQP4Wind Community. As we look ahead to 2025, we are inspired to build on this momentum and continue driving alignment, maturity, and innovation across the wind industry and beyond.

The APQP4Wind Community is experiencing rapid growth, now representing over 150 companies. This includes seven major utility companies and developers, twelve original equipment manufacturers, and an extensive network of suppliers. This strong and diverse community highlights APQP4Wind's crucial role in enhancing quality management and driving sustainability across the renewable energy sector.

We are thrilled to introduce our newly redesigned website: apqp4wind.org. Our updated platform is designed to improve your experience with new features that make accessing information and resources easier than ever.
