Despite record year, depressed wind power CEOs have one common headache

Despite another year of records, wind executives still appear to have a gloomy outlook for the near future – despite falling capital costs and the expected increase in electricity demand

In April, Orsted CEO Rasmus Errboe called for Europe to speed up grids rollout, get rid of barriers to electrification and commit to de-risking wind power projects. Now, a new survey indicates that CEOs in the wind power industry are a lot less optimistic about the future, than they were just a few months ago.
