VestasIn October 2022, Vestas completed the installation of two V162-6.2 MW™ wind turbines at EDP Renewables' Barão São João wind park, located in Lagos, Portugal.
The #EnVentus units have become the largest and most powerful onshore wind turbines in the Iberian Peninsula. Their 80-metre-long blades will supply the Portuguese grid with over 34 GWh of clean energy per year.

Turning our ambitions into actual wind farms means rethinking offshore wind auctions. Current mechanisms add too much financial risk upfront, instead of focusing on promoting project realisation and value creation.
2024, particularly, is a pivotal year - with an unprecedented volume of offshore wind up for auction. If ever there was a time for action, it’s now. Later is too late.

Whilst leaders from around the world review their decarbonization commitments, and more detailed plans are made, energy supply is still facing disruption, and climate breakdown is drawing closer.
At Vestas, we know that plans won’t solve the climate crisis, or the energy crisis. We also know that it takes up to a decade to secure permission for a wind energy project – so the solutions aren’t moving fast enough. This year, we need to end permitting delays, and shorten the permitting process for #windenergy.
How? We need an unlikely hero.

Just because cultural barriers are an inherent part of a global company, it doesn’t mean that we shouldn’t work to overcome them by asking questions, listening, and trying to understand each other and our differences. And that’s an essential takeaway from Jenie: “We need to build trust and encourage openness by rewarding people who ask (critical) questions, especially when working in culturally diverse teams.” Watch Jenie’s speech from the conference below!
At Vestas, cultural differences are valued. And they should in no way be a barrier for our employees to feel valued, safe, and included.Being your true self, also at work | Laurence Paquette | Vestas Leadership ForumVestas2022-10-07 | A few weeks back, the Vestas Leadership Forum 2022 kicked off in Copenhagen. As a conference to secure strategic alignment across regions and functions, the forum is also a key element to build the right leadership capabilities among our top leaders.
This year, one of the main topics focused on diversity and inclusion and how our leaders can ensure that everyone feels safe and included. As part of this, Laurence Paquette, Vice President and Head of Marketing, took the floor to tell her story and show how even the smallest of efforts can support an inclusive culture. To allow our employees to be their whole true selves, also at work.
