BlueWind Technology (Pensacola, Fla., U.S.) was honored with the Supplier Spirit of Alliance in November 2023, an award from energy equipment manufacturing and services company GE Vernova (Cambridge, Mass., U.S.) to suppliers that base their activities on the pillars of sustainability, safety and quality, delivery, cost and innovation. Only 22 companies among all GE's global suppliers received it.
Founded in 2019, BlueWind manufactures composite parts for applications with high technical requirements, such as those in wind power generation, agricultural and petrochemical industries. With a targeted increase in production capacity from 45 to 75 nacelles per week, GE is channeling substantial resources, including a $50 million investment in the Pensacola plant.
“The entire BlueWind team was proud of the award given by GE, as it recognizes our core values and shows that we are on the right path as high-performance composites manufacturers,” says Jean Fabio Zolet, CEO of Bluewind. The company announced an expansion of its composite nacelle production facilities in Pensacola in December 2023.
From January 2020 to November, BlueWind provided more than 1,700 nacelle covers to GE.
