Hybrid tower construction represents an advantageous and economic solution for multi-megawatt turbines and high hub heights. Oevermann’s patented tower shaft construction consists of a lower externally pre-stressed concrete section manufactured in climbing stages and an upper steel section. For over a decade this principle has proved its worth in a wide range of tower construction projects.

The necessary engineering services for such optimized tower construction are made available to our customers during the development stage of wind energy projects. Our services include the initial conceptualization, preliminary design and pre-dimensioning with initial cost estimates, and the provision of final construction design ready for certification.

Once the final design has been approved, we manage the entire tower construction process including the foundation, earthworks and road construction. Our well-established construction processes make use of cost-effective technologies to keep construction periods to a minimum and to ensure top building quality. The hybrid tower concept also allows the implementation of future-oriented sustainability criteria with respect to life span, disassembly and options for repowering.

Our ability to develop complete solutions based on innovative planning and high quality construction make Oevermann an ideal partner for building contractors, manufacturers of wind turbines and wind farm operators.
