ReutersWind farm developer Orsted confident about strategy after Q1 profit rises
Orsted, the world's biggest offshore wind farm developer, reported on Thursday a rise in first-quarter operating profit thanks to higher earnings from its offshore wind farms, and confirmed its full-year guidance. The offshore wind industry has been struggling with rising inflation, interest rate hikes and supply chain delays. Following a strategic review of its business, Orsted, which is 51%-owned by the Danish state, trimmed in February its investment and capacity targets, paused dividend payouts, and its finance and operations chiefs stepped down.
