Our locations in the U.S.
Ørsted’s journey in the US started in 2015, and we now own and operate the Block Island Wind Farm – America’s first offshore wind farm. Since then, we’ve expanded our renewable energy portfolio with onshore wind, offshore wind, solar, and storage in operation or construction across the Texas, Midwest, and East Coast markets. Along with our offshore and onshore wind capabilities, our push into solar has accelerated our role as an energy storage developer and solidified our presence in the US. We’re currently building two solar arrays in Texas and Alabama, totaling nearly 700 MW.

We’re firmly committed to bringing the benefits of renewable energy to the US and creating a healthier planet for the generations to come. Join hundreds of highly skilled employees across several Ørsted offices from Massachusetts down to Texas. Together, we can fight climate change and make a positive impact.

    • Facilities
    • Finance and controlling
    • Human resources
    • IT and digital
    • Marketing, branding, and communication

    Our office

    Located in the heart of downtown Chicago on the ‘Magnificent Mile’, close to transportation, shops, and restaurants, the Chicago office brings together Ørsted employees from all aspects of the onshore business. With a mix of avid bikers, sports enthusiasts, community volunteers, and leaders in addressing climate change, the Chicago office offers a collaborative and engaging work environment.

    The office is situated in a shared office block which benefits from an on-site gym, showers, and a canteen with a variety of options throughout the day. The facilities are newly renovated, and the space has been significantly expanded to accommodate the growing team.

    We have an active employee engagement group which arranges regular book clubs, quizzes, volunteering activities, and more, helping to keep the team together across the US.

  • Boston

    Our Boston office was founded in 2017 and brings together around 200 Ørsted employees from all aspects of the offshore and onshore business. 

    Typical roles:

    • Administration
    • Engineering and construction

    Boston was Ørsted’s first home in the US, with our first permanent office space officially opening in 2017. Now, our Boston office, a co-headquarters, has grown from just two employees to over 100.   
     
    With Massachusetts being the first state to formally adopt a comprehensive energy bill that included a mandate for state utilities to purchase offshore wind power and lease areas located off the southern coast, Boston has been an ideal location to establish our offshore business in the US.  

    In all of the states where we’re active, we’re committed to community investment programs that seek to rehabilitate piers, provide the necessary resources to encourage supply chain development, develop training programs for our future workforce, and support the local economy.

    Our office

    Our brand-new Boston office is based in the Back Bay neighborhood and features 360-degree views of the Charles River, the Public Garden, and Boston Common. Boasting a central location, the office is only a short walk from multiple lines of public transportation – including subway, commuter rail, and bus. Employees can also take advantage of our on-site gym and range of new facilities. 

  • Providence

    Our office in Providence, Rhode Island has been operating since 2018 and is currently home to around 70 employees from the offshore business.

    Typical roles:

    • Administration
    • Engineering and construction
    • IT and digital
    • Marketing, branding, and communication
    • Operations and technicians
    • Procurement
    • Public affairs, regulatory, and legal
    • Strategy and business development 


    Rhode Island is very special to us. Our Providence office serves as one of our co-headquarters – an office which we’ve recently expanded to accommodate our rapidly growing team.
     
    Rhode Island is home to American offshore wind – with our Block Island Wind Farm being the first offshore wind project in the nation. Through this project, we launched a brand-new industry right here on our shores and proved that renewable energy through offshore wind is viable.
     
    The island, which was previously powered by five diesel generators burning over one million gallons of fuel every year, is now powered entirely by offshore wind.

    Our office

    Located in the heart of downtown Providence, our newly renovated and expanded space is a buzzing, rapidly growing office for our skilled project teams.

    The office itself is very accessible – less than a five-minute walk from Providence train station and close to a major highway and the T.F. Green International Airport.
