According to the two companies, GBX and Invenergy Services will now be able to provide a superior product at a lower cost to more wind asset owners.
Gearbox Express (GBX), North America’s largest independent re-manufacturer of gearbox assemblies and main shafts for the wind industry, announced a new partnership with Invenergy Services, an award-winning sustainable energy solutions provider.
Through the partnership, GBX has secured Invenergy Services to perform major component and field-service work, resulting in the combined and expanded geographic footprint of service coverage.
“Invenergy’s award-winning services platform and desire to perform repairs and replacements in-house aligns incentives where we can both focus on our core competencies,” said Gearbox Express CEO, Bruce Neumiller. “We believe that Invenergy Services’ capabilities, combined with our equipment and industry expertise, make for a winning combination.”
The new partnership is effective immediately. Invenergy Services also recently announced the expansion of its offerings to third parties.
“Invenergy Services is excited to expand our services capabilities with this agreement, which not only deepens our relationship with Gearbox Express, but also enhances our ability to meet our customers’ wind turbine drivetrain needs,” said Brad Purtell, Director of Invenergy Services Business Development. “Ultimately, this agreement means delivering cost reductions for our customers due to the scale of the fleet that both Invenergy and Gearbox Express serve.” The partnership is effective immediately.
