Mohammed Fajar

Mohammed Fajar is a wind turbine blade engineer with twelve years in the industry, covering design, manufacturing and service across the full blade lifecycle. He founded Apex Wind ApS in 2023.

Before founding Apex Wind he spent nine years in the industry: in structural design of production blades at LM Wind Power, in blade test systems, and in blade concepts at Vestas, where he was product owner for blade innovation and concepts. Over that time he has:

• worked with LM, GE and Vestas blade designs
• brought new technologies and materials into factory production
• led retrofit and cost-out programmes
• handled warranty cases on major turbine platforms

He acts as an independent technical expert on blade incidents, including on project-financed assets where owners and lenders need a technical position they can rely on. That work covers the forensic inspection of a failed blade, witnessing the laboratory analysis behind a root cause analysis, auditing the plant producing replacement blades, and inspecting those blades before installation.
