Since acquiring regional onshore wind installation leader, Wind1000, in 2024, FairWind’s SESA business has been led by Wind1000 Co-Founders Jesύs Garcia Mallo, Diego Garrido Cousillas, and Carlos Louzao Aris. With the integration of Wind1000 into FairWind successfully completed, the three Co-Founders will move into a consultancy role with the business.

The Southern European countries, and South Africa, will form the new Mediterranean region, which will be led by Aitor Diaz de Lezana Fernández. Aitor joined FairWind in September 2024 as Regional Head of Service for SESA, having previously held senior service leadership roles at Siemens Gamesa and Nordex in Latin America.

FairWind’s current North America region will now incorporate the South American countries to become the Americas region. North America Regional Director, Armando Barradas, will continue leading the newly expanded region. Having joined the business in 2023, Armando’s previous experience includes leading Siemens Gamesa’s Latin American business.

Stewart Mitchell, CEO at FairWind, said: “These changes will allow the Mediterranean business to focus on growth in the Southern European countries, while enabling efficiencies in shared resources across the Americas region. Expanding our service provision to support customers with the safety and reliability of their assets will be a key focus for both Aitor and Armando as they deliver our ambitious growth plans for their respective regions.

“To fully align the new regions with the rest of the FairWind business, Wind1000 will rebrand to FairWind, with the change also taking effect on January 1, 2026. The acquisition of Wind1000 was central to our growth strategy in the region, and I would like to thank Jesύs, Diego, and Carlos for the significant contribution they’ve made to making this a success and for their continued support as they move into their new roles.”
