Clean energy supply chain


At Ørsted, we are pursuing supply chain development that expands the geographic reach of domestic, clean energy jobs and investment.


To date, our projects have already stimulated nearly $2 billion of investments into building an American supply chain and infrastructure for clean energy projects. This includes expanded and new manufacturing facilities, vessels that will usher in a new era of U.S. maritime activity and investments into new clean energy technologies that can be deployed around the world.

Supply chain offshore wind farm

A new era of opportunity with offshore wind energy


In March 2021 the U.S. established a goal of developing 30 GW of offshore wind energy by 2030. With less than 1 GW in operation today, this bold vision sets the U.S. on a course to combat climate change and invest in the American economy. Whether expanding the capabilities of U.S. companies or attracting foreign direct investment, Ørsted and its partners are bringing good-paying jobs, workforce development programs and economic growth far beyond the coastal communities and into cities and towns across the country.
