Celebration in Dahlewitz: Rolls-Royce delivers 9,000. Engine off!
Today is a big day for Rolls-Royce and the aviation industry: the 9,000th in Dahlewitz, Brandenburg. The company's engine was ceremoniously handed over. Distinguished guests have arrived for this special occasion, which begins on Monday, July 14, 2025, at 10:00 a.m. Prime Minister Dietmar Woidke (SPD) and British Ambassador Andrew Mitchell are on site to put their stamp on the glamor of the Mark. Both men will also take a tour of the factory, where around 2,500 employees currently work and develop, assemble and maintain aircraft engines using legendary craftsmanship. After all, the assembly in Dahlewitz looks back on a 30-year success story, which is now to be continued with new plans.
Both Woidke and Mitchell emphasize the importance of the location and the projects managed there. But the plans to further expand the location are also in the foreground. Around 22.5 million British pounds (around 26 million euros) are to be invested to meet the increasing demand for new large civil engines and to improve customer service. Around 100 new jobs are to be created by 2026 rbb24 reported.
Investments for the future
Rolls-Royce doesn't stand still when it comes to innovation. By announcing a billion-dollar investment in aircraft engines, the company is showing that it is focusing on both the performance and durability of its large engines. The investments are focused on important models such as the Trent series, which are crucial not only for efficiency but also for reliability. How aerointernational reports, the company aims to double “time on wing” through improved blade designs and materials. According to the company, this opens up a whole new dimension in fleet performance.
The aviation industry is in a positive mood, especially after the company has faced challenges in the past. After the corona pandemic, a net 550 jobs were cut at the Dahlewitz plant. But the new forecasts are promising: Rolls-Royce expects the global aircraft fleet to grow by 7 to 9 percent annually for the rest of the decade. The hours the engines spend in the air are expected to increase by 120 to 130 percent compared to 2019 - a figure that represents a significant upward trend for the industry.
In summary, it can be said that Rolls-Royce in Dahlewitz, Brandenburg, is investing in a bright future that will sustainably strengthen not only the company but also the region. The signs of a return to normality and the commitment to developing new technologies show that there is indeed a good hand in the aviation industry.
