Ørsted has been developing and building energy projects in the U.S. since 2015. We own and operate more than 6 GW of offshore wind capacity, onshore wind, solar, and battery storage, including South Fork Wind, America’s first commercial-scale offshore wind farm.

Our projects stretch from Texas and the Midwest to the East Coast. They add power to the grid, support local jobs, and create long-term economic benefits for the communities where we work.
