Future-proof
tower technology.

FUCHS.Hybridtower

The supporting structure.

Based on norms and stan­dards of the wind industry.

We guarantee a fast and reliable connec­tion to the steel tower using L‑flange connec­tion points on the tran­si­tion piece

We decouple stress fields in the tran­si­tion area by opti­mally utili­zing the mate­rial proper­ties of steel and concrete in terms of compres­sion, tension and ductility.

We produce segmented concrete rings with high precision, effi­ci­ency and cost-effec­ti­ve­ness.

We build a stable foun­da­tion with a solid end ancho­rage system for tendons in optimum dimen­sions and with minimal impact on the landscape.

Top technology? Standard.

We combine stan­dar­diza­tion with inno­va­tion. A high level of tech­no­logy is not a sales argu­ment for us, but the stan­dard for our product. From the deve­lo­p­ment of advanced concrete tech­no­logy to the use of state-of-the-art produc­tion tech­no­logy, all compon­ents of our tower concept are desi­gned to meet the requi­re­ments of modern turbines.

Further­more, all elements and compon­ents are within the tech­no­lo­gi­cally feasible and vali­datable range. We deliver a future-proof hybrid tower – planned, vali­dated and produced to the highest tech­no­lo­gical standards.

Validierung vom Windmast durch Geschäftsführer Jürgen Joos

360 degree validation

In order to meet the safety and quality requi­re­ments for modern tower systems for wind turbines, the FUCHS.Hybridtower is exten­si­vely tested for func­tion­a­lity, stabi­lity and service life in a 360-degree vali­da­tion. Throug­hout the deve­lo­p­ment process of the new tower system, expe­ri­enced FÜCHSE and wind industry experts worked closely with external engi­neers to jointly develop a robust and sustainable support struc­ture. The system is certi­fied by an accre­dited testing institute.

In addi­tion, we subject the FUCHS.Hybridtower to exten­sive appli­ca­tion testing and ensure the perfor­mance of all tower compon­ents. Thanks to an inde­pen­dent specia­list insti­tute and the inte­gra­tion of a modern measu­ring system, we can precisely vali­date the beha­viour of the tower under load. This ensures that our tower system remains stable in the field even after 25 years.

Standardized processes

Our entire produc­tion processes are effi­cient and quality-oriented. Clear inter­faces, digital quality manage­ment and ISO stan­dards guarantee an optimal produc­tion process.

Precise production

In the new produc­tion unit for hybrid towers, we manu­fac­ture the concrete segments auto­ma­ti­cally and with high precision using modern form­work tech­no­logy. With this FUCHS inno­va­tion, we guarantee an effi­cient produc­tion process.

High security

Compli­ance with safety stan­dards in the areas of quality, occu­pa­tional safety and envi­ron­mental protec­tion is our top prio­rity throug­hout the entire manu­fac­tu­ring process. We pursue a clear zero-defect strategy.

Modular and scalable

The FUCHS.Hybridtower offers the advan­tages of stan­dar­dized produc­tion, but its modular design also enables customer-specific adapt­a­tion in terms of height and geometry – aligned to turbine and country-specific frame para­me­ters. In this way, we ensure that the tower system can be manu­fac­tured to suit diffe­rent applications.

By incre­asing produc­tion capa­bi­li­ties for hybrid towers, we are estab­li­shing a crucial supply chain in the heart of Bavaria, faci­li­ta­ting the growth of wind energy in Germany without reli­ance on external sources or poten­tial bottlenecks.

The purple
tower supplier.

As a new manu­fac­turer of hybrid towers, we are respon­ding to the requi­re­ments of today and tomorrow. We deliver a valid design and tech­no­logy, expand the neces­sary capa­city on the market and offer a system with site- and turbine-specific appli­ca­tion capability.

Valid cons­truc­tion and tech­no­logy2024–09-23T09:23:44+02:00

Sophisti­cated and exten­si­vely tested: From deve­lo­p­ment to market readi­ness, the FUCHS.Hybridtower has under­gone and passed all the neces­sary exten­sive tests for stabi­lity and func­tionality of the support struc­ture. With the results of a 360-degree vali­da­tion by internal and external experts as well as inde­pen­dent testing insti­tutes, we can guarantee that the FUCHS.Hybridtower meets all turbine-specific requi­re­ments. Further­more, we subject the key tower compon­ents to exten­sive appli­ca­tion tests, ensu­ring that our system is not only of the highest quality and stabi­lity, but also meets the most deman­ding stan­dards. 

Expan­sion of capa­city2024–09-23T09:25:08+02:00

The expan­sion targets in Germany are high and the cons­truc­tion of wind farms is picking up speed. More than 70 % of all appr­ovals are now being realised on hybrid towers. This is a strong endor­se­ment of the system, parti­cu­larly in rela­tion to high hub heights and modern turbine classes. We are dedi­cated to expan­ding the supply chain for hybrid towers in Germany and Europe to ensure the continued seam­less expan­sion of wind energy. In this way, we are helping to ensure that there are no supply bott­len­ecks in the future. Our first produc­tion faci­lity in Neumarkt i.d.OPf. repres­ents a signi­fi­cant mile­stone for us in 2024. 

Modular and stan­dar­dized produc­tion2024–09-23T09:25:35+02:00

The basis of our produc­tion concept is the high-precision and modular produc­tion of concrete segments. We meet the requi­re­ments for quality and accu­racy with our stan­dar­dized high-precise form­work. The modular struc­ture of the produc­tion allows for customer-specific adjus­t­ments to the height of the tower, aligned to turbine and site-specific frame para­me­ters. This ensures that our tower system meets the market-specific requi­re­ments for quality, appli­ca­bi­lity and cost-effectiveness.
