Overview

ImWind, legally IWP Großhofen GmbH & Co KG, is an Austrian renewable-energy company that develops, builds and operates wind and photovoltaic (solar) parks. The company presents itself as a wind-power and photovoltaic pioneer and one of the largest producers of renewable energy in Austria. It has been active for around three decades, developing, constructing and operating wind and solar parks both domestically and internationally. The company's core business is the generation of regional, renewable electricity from wind and sun. Its portfolio spans the full project lifecycle: site identification, permitting, construction, and long-term operation of wind and solar assets. ImWind states that it handles every step in-house, with a team of more than 100 people covering environmental and electrical engineering, civil and structural engineering, landscape design, biology and nature conservation, as well as finance and law. This integrated approach is presented as a key differentiator and the basis for long-term partnerships. ImWind works closely with landowners, municipalities and energy partners. According to its own communications, more than 1,000 landowners and over 40 host municipalities have entrusted the company with renewable-energy projects. It also cooperates with regional energy utilities and international energy companies to develop new wind and photovoltaic parks with several hundred megawatts of capacity in Austria and elsewhere in Europe. The company also engages in power purchase agreements (PPAs). In terms of positioning, ImWind emphasizes reliability, openness, integrity and long-term partnership. Its stated mission is to produce sustainable, affordable and pollutant-free electricity for a livable future. The company is headquartered in Großhofen, Austria, and operates under the ImWind brand. Its management includes DI Karl Gruber MBA, who is described as managing director and CEO of ImWind. As a private company, ImWind is not listed on a stock exchange. Its legal form, GmbH & Co KG, is a common Austrian structure for privately held businesses. The company continues to expand its wind and solar project pipeline in Austria and across Europe.

History

ImWind, legally IWP Großhofen GmbH & Co KG, has been active in the Austrian renewable-energy sector for around three decades. The company describes itself as a wind-power and photovoltaic pioneer and states that it has been developing, building and operating wind and photovoltaic parks at home and abroad for 30 years. Over that period it has grown into one of the largest producers of renewable energy in Austria. From its base in Großhofen, Austria, ImWind built a business around the full lifecycle of renewable-energy projects. Rather than outsourcing key functions, the company assembled an in-house team of more than 100 specialists covering environmental and electrical engineering, civil and structural engineering, landscape design, biology and nature conservation, as well as finance and law. This allows ImWind to manage each wind or photovoltaic project from the initial idea through the permitting phase to construction and operation. A central element of ImWind's history and identity is its partnership model. The company reports that more than 1,000 landowners and over 40 host municipalities have placed their trust in it for renewable-energy generation. One long-standing example cited by the company is the Oberzeiring wind park, where, according to a former mayor of the Pölstal region, initial skepticism about wind power—especially on a mountain—gave way over nearly 20 years to strong local support, which the mayor attributed to ImWind's open communication and fair cooperation. ImWind has also expanded beyond Austria. It develops new wind and photovoltaic parks with several hundred megawatts of capacity in Austria and in other European countries, working with regional energy utilities and international energy companies. The company is also active in power purchase agreements (PPAs). In terms of leadership, DI Karl Gruber MBA is identified as managing director and CEO of ImWind. The company remains privately held under the legal form IWP Großhofen GmbH & Co KG and continues to pursue its mission of generating regional, renewable electricity from wind and sun for a livable future.
