What Haizea Wind Group does
Haizea Wind Group is a Spanish-headquartered manufacturer of large-scale structural components for the wind energy industry, primarily serving offshore wind developers and turbine original equipment manufacturers. Founded in 2017 and headquartered in Zierbena (Bilbao) under parent Haizea Investments S.L., the company produces XXL monopile foundations, offshore and onshore wind towers, transition pieces, large cast components, and related steel structures. The group operates a multi-plant network spanning Spain (Bilbao, Burgos) and France (Brest), and recently divested its Argentine subsidiary Haizea Sica to refocus on European and US offshore wind. A €250M+ capital programme has expanded the Bilbao facility to manufacture next-generation monopiles designed for 15+ MW turbines, taking advantage of direct quayside access at the Port of Bilbao for oversized component shipping.
The company's revenue model is built on long-term supply contracts and framework agreements with major European offshore wind developers and Tier-1 turbine OEMs. Named customers include Ørsted (Hornsea 3, 197 monopiles), Iberdrola/Scottish Power (East Anglia 3, 50 monopiles valued at €200M+), Vattenfall/RWE (Norfolk Vanguard West), Siemens Gamesa, Vestas, GE Vernova, Smulders, US Wind, and Baltic Power. Haizea reported revenue of €416.9M in 2025, up from €371M in 2024 and €129M in 2020, with EBITDA of €47M in 2024 and net profit of €20M in 2025. The company is privately held and has supplemented its growth with a €35M EIB green loan (2024) to fund advanced manufacturing technology and digitalisation.
