Introducing Vestas Control Systems, Lem
The factory in Lem is located in the western part of Denmark, near the city of Ringkøbing. The factory is situated in an industrial area surrounded by a beautiful panoramic view of Denmark’s countryside.
Presently employing approximately 400 people, this facility is where what we know as Vestas Wind Systems A/S today all began.
A little history
In 1898, the blacksmith HC Hansen arrived in Lem. In 1945, HC Hansen’s son helped found the original Vestas company that specialised in household appliances. Throughout the company’s evolution, the city of Lem and the facilities here, have played an important role. Over the years, the simple factory in Lem has become a highly modern production facility.

Sights and surroundings
Lem has approximately 1600 inhabitants and is considered “a nice little spot” on Denmark’s west coast. The driving distances to Ringkøbing, Holstebro and Herning are all very short, so shopping, dining, cultural and social activities are quite accessible. The west coast is known for good windsurfing in the summer.
