In 2023, Europe's renewable energy market has shifted significantly towards utility-scale projects, moving away from residential markets. This transition presents new challenges for logistics departments due to a more complex and fragmented supply chain. Rasmus Hage of Hellmann Worldwide Logistics highlights the importance of adapting logistics strategies to accommodate these changes. The company leverages its extensive experience in digitalized solutions and industry-specific expertise to manage this complexity effectively. Hellmann's approach involves reverse engineering from project sites by establishing direct communication with on-site teams and planning logistical needs accurately, such as truck requirements. They emphasize developing fallback scenarios for potential disruptions like order cancellations or project delays. Drawing lessons from the US market, where similar shifts have occurred, Hellmann stresses the need for local presence through import hubs across Europe while managing cash flow and VAT deferment issues efficiently. Their tailored warehouse management system provides real-time visibility globally, ensuring seamless operations throughout the supply chain. Ultimately, successful partnerships are crucial in navigating these transitions smoothly without compromising service quality or incurring additional costs.
