A wind industry port with space for growth
Welcome to Aalborg

One of Northern Europe's most scalable wind industry ports
Port of Aalborg is one of Northern Europe’s most scalable wind industry ports. Here, production, testing, storage, logistics and load-out of large offshore wind components come together. With extensive quayside areas, heavy-duty infrastructure and room for expansion, we provide the conditions for your next step.
- Approx. 3 million m² dedicated to the wind industry: Of the port’s approximately 4.9 million m² of industrial land, 60% is allocated to production, testing and storage for the wind industry.
- More than 1 million m² available for expansion: Our location outside the constraints of the city, with open land on either side, provides exceptional opportunities to prepare and bring new areas into use at short notice.
- 3,500-4,000 jobs: The industrial area around the port in Aalborg is home to a number of major wind industry companies, directly accounting for between 3,500 and 4,000 jobs. This is in addition to the indirect employment generated by suppliers, transport companies and service providers.
We continuously invest in providing even more of the quayside areas and infrastructure required by the wind industry. Since 2023, we have invested more than DKK 500 million in purpose-built areas for our wind industry customers, and by autumn 2027, a brand-new 500-metre quay will be ready, enabling a significant expansion of our quayside areas.
Production and collaboration
From Aalborg, Siemens Gamesa and CS WIND Offshore manufacture wind turbine components for offshore wind farms worldwide. Together with companies such as ProCon Wind Energy and Sterke, they provide the area with a strong industrial base comprising companies from across the production value chain.
A world-leading testing environment
The port plays a key role in the industry as home to one of the world’s leading testing environments. BLAEST’s independent testing laboratory, combined with Siemens Gamesa’s own blade test centre, forms part of the port area’s specialised environment for the development and testing of wind turbine blades.
Storage and load-out
The open land surrounding the port provides the space required to serve as a storage port for offshore wind projects. With extensive quayside areas, robust port infrastructure and strong logistics capabilities, we provide the conditions for storing large wind components ahead of load-out.
