deugro Germany has signed a strategic agreement with terminal operator J. Müller for the handling and storage of wind turbine components at the Port of Brake.
The partnership follows the port’s award for managing components from a leading global turbine manufacturer and combines deugro’s two decades of global wind logistics expertise with J. Müller’s specialist port handling capabilities on Germany’s North Sea coast.
The Port of Brake features advanced breakbulk infrastructure including heavy-lift quays, 11.9-metre draft, berth capacity for vessels up to 275 metres, and extensive laydown areas for oversized cargo.
According to deugro, the collaboration will ensure efficient unloading, shifting and storage of rotor blades and other renewable energy components, reinforcing the port’s role as a key hub for imports into the German market.
“This agreement reflects our commitment to delivering tailored logistics solutions for the renewable energy industry,” said Christian Schulz, vice president global strategic accounts at deugro. “Brake’s strategic location and the operational excellence of our local port handling partner provide the ideal setup for the efficient and secure handling of wind turbine components destined for project sites across Germany and beyond.”
Simon Junker, head of renewable energy for onshore wind and cable at deugro, added: “This partnership strengthens our role in the wind energy supply chain and supports Germany’s transition to sustainable energy.”
