    "The faster the world changes, the greater the security in being able to adapt toa changing world” Weneray is anew name among windturbine manufacturers in Denmark - but there is an abun- dance of experience behind it. The employees at the factory in Hel- strup, Denmark as well as the direc- tors are almost exactly the same as those employed at Micon. Micon. 2 firm that conquered a third of the Danish market for windturbines sup plied to California in just three years. The owners of Micon have de- cided to divide the firm between ‘them, and’by the end of 1987, Micon will no longer manufacture windtur- bines. On the other hand, Weneray is already prepared today to live up to its inheritance. - It is, of course, We- nergy’s aim to continue the positive development we have experienced ‘over the past threo years. Wo shall maintain our position as one of the world’s leading manufacturers of windturbines ~a position the factory in Helstrup attained in the Micon period, says Wenergy's president, Peder H. Morup. Since 1983 Micon has manu- factured over 1,200 windturbines, mainly for export to the US.A. and India. A small number of windturbi- nes have also been sold in Den- mark - this is a market Weneray plans to develop more extensively in the near future, Executive Vice President Sales Nils Goth Hartmann says: = We plan to greatly increase our activities on the domestic market. A solid market in Denmark will contr- bute to Wenergy’s fund of know- ledge for the benefit of the export. market. Our opportunities are prac- tically unlimited - the only limiting factors are imagination and invest- ment capital Up to now the factory in Hel- strup near Randers in Jutland, Den- mark, has manufactured 22, 65 and 108 KW. turbines. But Pedar H. Morup ang his staff have recently developed a fourth type of WT which, with 2 height of 80 metres and a wing diameter of 23 metres, is Denmari’s largest stall-roguiated WT manufactured in series. This new turbine generates power up to 160 kW., and Peder H. Morup feels there is a great future for this type of turbine both on the domestic and the export market. He says: = Denmark is still not quite ready the large types of windturbines, bi it certainly makes sense to manu- facture them. On the American mar- ket, among others, there are increa- singly great demands for increased production per invested dollar. A three-year plan has been formulated tor Weneray, and accor- ding to this plan, the factory in Hel- strup will manufacture approx. 1,600 windturbines for use in Denmark and other countries by 1989. This will make Wenergy one of the world's leading manufacturers of windturbines over the next three years. Q The man behind Wenergy is Peder H. Marup. He is one of the most experienced manufacturers of windturbines in Denmark, and his turbines have won international acclaim - not least in the USA where large windparks based on Danish know-how have been constructed Peder H. Morup, who is a manufacturing enginéer, B.S0. by profession, was managing director of a large Danish factory few years ago. He developed an inte- rest in alternative forms of energy in the late 1970's, and this led to he idea of manutacturing Danish Windturbines. Approx. 70 people are employed at the factory in Hel strup, and in addition to this, there is a staffin the USA. to handle marketing and service at Wenergy’s subsidiary there, Most of the employees have long experience in the construction of windturbines from their period of _-employment at Micon, but there Gre new faces a8 well Klaus Eppier 12s been hired as Wenergy's pro- duction manager. He has not pre- viously worked with windturbines, \Alaus Eppler Production Menager Nis Goth Hartmann Executive Vice President, Sales In the spring of 1983 Peder H Morup and his brother Ering Merup decidedto start their own company, Marup Industrial Windmill Company, Micon A/S. Peder H. Morup would take care of manufacturing, and his brother would be responsible for marketing the Micon turbines. - But, as often happens, we developed diverging views of how the business should be operated, and that is why we have agreed to divide the Micon group between us, says Peder H. Morup. By the end of 1987, Micon tur- bines will no longer be manufactu- red, but Peder H. Morup will conti- but has, among other things, served as plant manager of Danogips in Hobro, Denmark. Kiaus Eppler is trained as a 8.Sc. (Mech. Eng.) Nils Goth Hartmann is Wener- gy's new Executive Vice President. He started work on March 1, 1986, and comes from Svejsemaskine febrikken Migatronic (a welding machine factory) in Fjerrtslev, Denmark, where he was in charge Of sales and marketing for five years.

Three years ago he became Micor's first development engineer, and today he is product develop- ment manager, Ole Fisker Hansen assumed position May 1, 1985, as Vice Presi: dent in charge of sales in the U.S.A.

Medarbejderne pa fabrik- ken i Helstrup er nemlig sammen med ledelsen stort set d= samme som i Micon. Den virksomhed, der pa kun tre ar erobrede en tredjedel af de danske leverancer til vind mollemarkedet i Californien. Indehaverne af Micon har bestuttet at dele firmaet meliem sig, 0g ved udgangen af 1987 vil der ikke lzengere blive fremstillet maller i Micons regi. Til genggeld er Wenergy klar til at ote arven - allerede fra i dag. - Det er naturligy's Wenerays malszeining at fortszette den positive udvikling, vi nar oplevet de seneste tre ar. Vi skal fasthoide vor position 30m een af verdens ference vind- malleproducenter - en position, som fabrikken i Helstrup opnaede allerede i Micons tic, siger Wenergys direktor Peder H. Morup. Micon har siden 1983 produ- ceret over 1.200 vindmaller ~ vessentligst til USA og Indien. Det er ogsa blevet til en mindre produk- tion til Danmark - et marked, som Wenergy vil satse betydoligt pa. Salgsdirekter Nils Goth Hartmann siger: - Derskal ske on veesentlig for- ogelse af cktiviteteme pa njerme- markedet. Et solidt marked i Dan- mark vil nemlig vaere medvirkende tilat give Weneray yderiigero erfa- ring til gavn for eksporten. Vore mulighedererstort set ubegraonseds - kun fantasi og kepitalgrundlag seatier greenser. Fabrikken i Helstrup ved Ran- ders har hidti fremstillet moller pa 22, 65 og 108 Kw. Senest har Peder H. Marup og hans stab udviklet en fJerde malletype, der med en hojde pa 30 meter og en vingediameter pa 23 meter er Danmarks storste serieproducerede melle. Den nye malletype er pa cirka 160 Kw., og Peder H. Marup mener. at der er stor fremtid i denne form for maller - sével pa eksport - som pa hjemmemarkedet. Han siger: - Engnu er Danmark ikke helt indstilet pa de storre molletyper, men der er absolut mening | at fremstille dem. Biandt endet pa det amerikanske marked stiles der sta ig storre krav om aget produktion pr. investeret krone. Der er lagt en tre-Arspian for Wenergy, 09 ifalge den vil fabrikken i Helstrup from til 1989 fremstile comkring 1.600 vindmaller til bade ind- og udland. Dotto vi i lobet af de neeste tre ar gare Wenergy tl en af verdens forende vindmalic- producenter. Manden bag Weneray hedder Peder H. Merup. Han er een af de mest erfarne vindmalieproducenter i Danmark, og hans molier har vun: det intemational anerkendelse - ikke mindst i USA, hvor der er opbygget store vindmolloparker baseret pa den danske know-how. Peder H. Morup, der er uddan- net produktionsingeniar, var for nogle ar siden fabrikschef pa en store dansk virksomhed. Sidst i 1870'eme begyndte han at beskeef- tige sig med den alternative enerais muligheder, og det affodte idéen om at starte en dansk vindmolle- Produktion. Der er omkring 70 mand beskeeftiget pa fabrikken | Helstrup, hvortil kommer den stab, der tager Sig at salgs- og servicefunktionerne I Wenergys datterselskad | USA. Langt de fleste medarbejdere har stor erfaring i vindmollebyggeri fra deres tid i Micon, men der er kommet enkelte nye ansigter ti, Klaus Eppler er ansat som produktionscnef hos Wenergy. Han Klaus Eppler produktionschef Nils Goth Hartmann salgsdirektor Horaret 1983 besluttede Peder H. Marup sammen med sin bror Erling Morup at etablere eget firma, Morup Industrial Windmill Company, Micon A/S. Poder H. Merup skulle std for produktionen, mens hans bror skulle varetage salget of Micon-molleme. - Som det s4 ofte ses har udviklingen medfart forskellige opfattelser af, hvordan forretningen skal drives, og derfor er vi blevet. enige om at dele Micon-aruppen meliem os, siger Peder H. Marup. Med udgangen af 1987 vil der ikke leengere biive tremstilet Micon- har ikke tidligere arbejdet indenfor vindmollebranchen, men har blandt andet vaeret fabrikschef hos Dano- gips i Hobro.
