Empowering a Sustainable Future Together

From the start of the gearbox development ZF and its partners share power in planning, research and design. From engineering collaboration at the beginning to close service partnerships after installation… We see close relationships and trust as fundamental to enable processes and outputs.

SHIFT, ZF's modular gearbox platform series, celebrates 10 years of proven reliability at global scale: a decade defined by efficiency by design, competitiveness in every market and data-driven insights.

Built on decades of powertrain expertise and the field-proven SHIFT modular gearbox concept, with more than 65 GW installed worldwide, ZF Wind Power’s modular powertrain platform offers unlimited solutions, helping the wind industry streamline development, maximize scalability and contribute to the energy transition.

As a leading innovator, ZF Wind Power invests in a Test & Prototype Center. The center contains the world's most powerful validation test bench needed to develop the next generations of wind turbine powertrains. This state-of-the-art 30 MW test rig can validate complete powertrain systems for onshore and offshore wind turbine applications.

Thrive, ZF's proactive global service concept answers the diversity and dynamics of the wind market and helps wind park operators, OEMs and other partners getting the most out of wind power to successfully stand the competition.

ZF’s pioneering “Services powered by Analytics” will help reduce the levelized cost of energy. Digital solutions integrated with ZF’s high performance mechanical systems will bring new opportunities to optimize the energy yield and decrease the operational cost of wind farms.
