SKF selected for first international order

SKF has been selected to deliver Nautilus bearings for Dongfang Electric New Energy Equipment (Hangzhou) Co Ltd.’s first order of wind turbines outside China.

Dongfang Electric New Energy Equipment is a leading manufacturer of wind turbines to a broad range of customers in China. The company recently received its first international order of 2.5 Mw direct drive wind turbines and selected SKF as single supplier of main shaft bearings.

A large number of the wind turbines manufactured by Dongfang Electric New Energy Equipment for international export will be delivered to Skellefteå Kraft, one of Sweden’s largest energy companies.

The collaboration between China and Sweden is unique and will result in one of Europe’s largest land based wind parks. The Nautilus bearings will mainly be produced in SKF’s factory in Dalian, China.
