Expert opinions for all phases of your wind energy project
We support you in all phases of your wind energy project, from development to end-of-life of your wind turbines. Our detailed analyses of wind turbine decommissioning costs provide maximum planning certainty, support informed investment decisions and ensure seamless decommissioning. Our services are thorough and tailored to all turbine types.
Our expertise to accurately calculate your dismantling costs
We have been involved in the decommissioning of wind turbines for several years as a founding member of RDRWind e.V., the previous research project “DemoNetXXL” and the WindEurope TaskForce “Decommissioning of Onshore Wind Turbines”. Our focus is always on participating in new developments and taking them into account in our expert reports.
Versatile applications
We can help you accurately assess the cost of dismantling wind turbines to ensure you meet your dismantling obligations, make the right provisions and minimise your financial risks.
Due diligence
Reliable overview of the dismantling costs of your investmentApplication and project start
Reliable calculation of dismantling costs for each type of wind turbineSituation: For the construction of new wind turbines (BImSchG), a precise provision amount is already required when the application is submitted.
Solution: Nefino provides well-founded dismantling cost estimates at an early stage in order to meet your financial obligations correctly from the outset.

Our approach
Wind turbines are made from a variety of materials including concrete, steel, fibre-reinforced plastics and copper. Dismantling is complex and varies from turbine to turbine, so the cost of dismantling will vary accordingly. To ensure a complete cost analysis, all turbine and wind farm characteristics are included in our project-specific reports and included in the calculation.
WTG-specific material matrices
We have developed a comprehensive database on the material composition of wind turbines. Thanks to our collaboration with experienced dismantling companies, it contains practical and realistic data on all wind turbine models. These material matrices allow a specific calculation of dismantling costs for each turbine type.
Current disposal costs and recycling proceeds
Many wind turbine components are recyclable and can be sold on the secondary materials market, including metals such as steel and copper. Other materials, such as concrete or operating fluids, require professional disposal. Our dismantling cost analyses take into account current and future recycling revenues and disposal costs to provide an accurate estimate of the dismantling costs for your wind energy project.

Precise analysis of dismantling costs for our customers
Many companies already rely on our dismantling cost reports to reliably determine the subsequent costs of dismantling. You too can benefit from our reports and stay one step ahead of the competition.
Nefino’s report stands out for its transparency and comprehensibility. The close collaboration and careful consideration of all project characteristics helped us to accurately forecast future decommissioning costs.
Nefino’s decommissioning cost report convinced us with its detailed and transparent breakdown of costs and revenues. The accurate interim results gave us confidence that all aspects of our wind farm had been thoroughly considered.
The report not only helped us to calculate and plan the demolition costs, but also to meet the increased requirements of the authorities. Working with Nefino has always been fast, focused and professional.

As individual as your wind farm – the price of our expert opinion
Our prices are as individual as your requirements. In order to offer you the best possible solution, we analyse your specific needs and prepare a tailor-made quotation.
Once the contract is awarded, a kick-off meeting is held to gather and agree all the necessary data. After processing, we hand over the comprehensive report and are available to answer questions during the final presentation.
