About WindEnergy Hamburg

Energy storage is key to a successful energy transition, and consequently an essential building block for a zero-carbon energy future. Innovations and trends in this segment are in focus at the first-ever Energy Storage Area at WindEnergy Hamburg 2026, located in a hall of its own. 

In this new exhibition area, manufacturers, suppliers and system providers will showcase trailblazing energy storage technologies and system integration solutions. The international industry audience at WindEnergy Hamburg offers you enormous potential for sharing experiences and building business links. 

Join us in celebrating the premiere of the Energy Storage Area 2026 in Hamburg! 

The worldwide trend continues. There is an ongoing demand for onshore wind energy plants. At the same time, requirements and regulations for plants are getting stricter, whether in extreme climatic regions or in low-wind-speed areas. The industry is now developing onshore plants that are tailored to specific situations. Furthermore, repowering – the replacement of old plants by new, more efficient ones – is advancing steadily. Here, the industry is firmly demonstrating its innovative strengths – working to ensure sustainable growth and create added value.

The exploitation of offshore wind energy offers attractive market opportunities. While the current focus is firmly on Europe, there is potential for growth on a global scale. The areas where the onshore and offshore industries overlap are considerable, but technology, logistics, financing, and the different market players themselves, remain clearly distinct from each another. The success of offshore wind energy exploitation depends, above all, on the effective combination of wind energy sector competencies and those of the maritime industry.

On 24 and 25 September 2026, Hall B3 at WindEnergy Hamburg will be dedicated entirely to the specialists of tomorrow. During the Recruiting Days, the Recruiting Area will bring together young talents, professionals and companies as well as associations from the wind energy industry. 

Whether you are a student, just starting your career or looking for your next career step: this is the place to explore a wide range of opportunities and connect directly with potential employers. Back in 2024, the Recruiting Area proved to be a great success, featuring numerous exhibitors, a diverse stage program and its own job wall. 

In a dynamically growing industry with a high demand for skilled professionals, the Recruiting Days provide the ideal platform to network, discover opportunities and drive the future of wind energy forward together. 

Expect much more than a trade fair. With its comprehensive supporting program, WindEnergy Hamburg gives all exhibitors and visitors the opportunity to expand their knowledge and intensify contacts. There will be a high-caliber program on offer with specialist forums and conferences, workshops, and lectures – all playing a significant contribution to the development of the wind energy sector.
