Brain power

By 2020, wind could provide one-tenth of our planets


electricity needs. Already today, SKFs innovative knowhow is crucial to running a large proportion of the
worlds wind turbines.
Up to 25 % of the generating costs relate to maintenance. These can be reduced dramatically thanks to our
systems for on-line condition monitoring and automatic
lubrication. We help make it more economical to create
cleaner, cheaper energy out of thin air.
By sharing our experience, expertise, and creativity,
industries can boost performance beyond expectations.
Therefore we need the best employees who can
meet this challenge!
