I am removing the posting for this for a number of reasons:

I don't believe Acciona even manufactures turbines. They do own and operate wind fields. I recommend reviewing the list 142.176.6.109 (talk) 16:53, 6 August 2010 (UTC)
This list has clearly got out of hand, and there are concerns about a list like this becoming a "spam magnet". I have removed red-linked entries which seemed to be non-notable. If there are some sizeable manufacturers who do not yet have their own article, please add them in with a third party reference. Or write the company article first. Thanks.

(←) It's been a while and this list was clearly out of hand again, so I went through and removed all redlinked and non-linked entries. Ioeth (talk contribs twinkle friendly) 20:12, 3 February 2010 (UTC)
The current article is messy, crowded and ambiguous. I propose sectioning based on turbine capacity (size) and production volume (numbers). But other suggestions are also likely to be better than the current. My wording is cumbersome, but shows my intentions :
-Top10-
-Other high volume producers of large wind turbines-
Nordex
Samsung
Mitsubishi
AREVA/Multibrid
Clipper
DeWind
WinWinD
Alstom Ecotècnia
-High volume producers of small wind energy generators-
Raum
-Current producers of low volume-
-Historic manufacturers-
Boeing
The problem of this way of dividing is where to draw the line between high and low volume, and between small and large turbines.
Most (all?) high volume large turbines are the so-called "Danish model" of horizontal axis, 3-bladed upwind type, but other types (2-bladed, VAWT, etc) should be represented.

Hi,
I would like to change, or at least remove, the internal link for HanJin, but it don't works because of restrictions given here. The actual link is not correct, due to not linking to the wind turbine manufacturer HanJin, but to the chatter HanJin!

[Transferred to this talk page from the article, at line 93 on June 22, 2011:]
I just visited this link and while I cannot tell you what was there before, this is now just a list of marketing and sales representatives from around the world. The first on the list, 21st Century, doesn't even sell or manufacture, they just offer to help you connect to other companies that do plan and manufacture (ref. http://www.21cse.com/services). I tried searching the indicated directory using their search engine and came up with equally related results.

Four domestic companies that make most of the steel towers for wind turbines in the United States filed a trade complaint against China and Vietnam on Thursday, seeking tariffs in the range of 60 percent. The action is a significant new skirmish in an emerging green energy trade war. ... The case was filed by the Wind Tower Trade Coalition — comprising Trinity Structural Towers, DMI Industries, Katana Summit and Broadwind Energy — at the Commerce Department, which has 20 days to decide whether to initiate an investigation. In addition, another government agency, the International Trade Commission, will hold a hearing in about three weeks ...

Changed it to only a German flag. True Siemens Wind Power is the result of the acquisition of a Danish company and there is still major production and research capacity located in Denmark. However, it is a division in the energy sector of a German company with headquarters in Hamburg, Germany and a German CEO and CFO who report to the CEO / CFO of the Siemens Energy Sector in Erlangen, Germany and ultimately into the CEO / CFO of Siemens AG in Munich, Germany. In addition it is increasingly building up production capacity in other countries. Frankly, claiming a division of Siemens is Danish because it has production in Denmark, would imply that Apple is a Chinese/American company. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 188.174.214.178 (talk) 09:21, 28 April 2012 (UTC)
The chart was for wind-energy suppliers, regardless of who manufactured the turbines. Manufacturing differs from power production/installation. Therefore, barring renaming of this article, I deleted the chart. Softlavender (talk) 09:47, 3 January 2015 (UTC)
"Small wind turbine manufacturers" means
manufacturer of small w. turbines or
small manufacturers of w. turbines?
Not necessarily the same. --Helium4 (talk) 10:03, 9 January 2019 (UTC)
I've some comments about the wiki: List of wind turbine manufacturers. 1) The distinction between small and large windturbines isn't clear to me. May I suggest adding widening the scope of small windturbines to 100kW. I think the <10kW are micro windturbines, for house holds. The small or medium (10kW - 100kW) wind turbine are connected behind the meter. On the low voltage grid, 230V - 1000V <80A. The farmer or rural area wind turbines. Manufacturers TUGE; XANT; - Large wind turbines MW range. These are connected to medium voltage 10kV or higher. Lots of manufacturers are missing; Aeolos(UK); ATB(Italy) BestWind (GER/NL) [Lely-Aircon]; EAZ (NL); ESPE (Italy); EWT (NL)[Lagerway LW50]; Leitwind (Italy); Viking Wind (Denmark); WES (NL) [LW18-80 &LW30-250]; Uniwind (Ger); SWP (Denmark).
