The people behind the clarity

At Youwind, we believe that the efficient and sustainable deployment of wind energy is already possible. That belief drives our purpose: to empower companies to make the right decisions when managing and developing wind energy initiatives. To make this a reality, we design grounded digital solutions adapted to each client’s requirements that push the boundaries of the wind energy sector.

A wind energy journey shaped by years of experience

We, Anna Rivera and Edvald Edvaldsson, founded Youwind after facing the real-world challenges experienced while working in the heart of the offshore wind industry in Denmark. As a strategic consultant and a development engineer working for leading offshore developers, we saw firsthand how fragmented tools and siloed processes slowed down decisions and limited project potential. We shared a clear goal: to create a platform that combined engineering rigour with usability, breaking down silos and enabling teams to work faster and smarter. What started as a simple idea has evolved into robust and flexible digital solutions, trusted by multiple professionals across the wind energy sector to bring clarity and guide strategic decisions in both offshore and onshore projects.

2016

The motivation

While working for key players in the offshore wind industry in Denmark, Edvald and Anna experienced the lack of ready-to-use tools nor resources to develop them in-house properly, resulting in slow and non-collaborative wind projects development.

2018

Company launch

Youwind is founded as a first-mover SaaS solution, merging engineering and financial modelling to accelerate offshore development.

2019

Logistics capabilities

Launch of OptiWindow to optimise CAPEX and reduce weather downtime. First major developers join the platform.

2021

Innovation recognition

Nominated best start-up by WindEurope and Elia. Big consultancies begin using Youwind.

2022

Layout and yield accurate calculations

Launch of Pixel and Pixel Park for GIS constraint analysis and layout optimisation—enabling bankable yield assessments.

2023

Consolidation and expansion

Half of the top 6 offshore developers become recurring clients. Significant growth across EU and APAC, supporting 10+ award-winning projects.

2024

Usability and onshore launch

Launch of Pixel+, enhancing user experience. First onshore clients onboarded. Finalist at the Tamarindo Innovation Awards.
