The company also develops onshore wind and solar projects, battery storage facilities and other renewable energy infrastructure.

Since then, offshore wind has become the central focus of its business, although the company continues to pursue a broader portfolio of renewable energy and related solutions.
Ørsted serves energy markets in Europe, North America and the Asia-Pacific region. Its projects and business activities have included countries such as Denmark, the United Kingdom, Germany, the Netherlands, the United States, Taiwan and other markets with growing demand for renewable electricity.
