About the Organization
We are a global renewable energy and energy transition infrastructure enterprise developing and operating large-scale offshore wind farms, green hydrogen production hubs, battery storage networks, carbon capture facilities, and next-generation smart grid systems across North America, Europe, and Asia-Pacific.
