CE Marking
CE Marking for Wind Turbines is driven by the dynamic wind energy market in Europe, the issue of CE marking has moved into focus. Market supervisory authorities no longer turn a blind eye to the safety aspects of wind turbines.
To guarantee the free movement of goods across the single European market, more than 20 product directives have been issued since 1987 based on Article 95 of the EC Treaty. Limited to "essential requirements" which are general in nature and primarily focus on health protection, these directives are compulsory for any product put into circulation and so apply to wind turbines and their sub-assemblies as well.
