RES SHORTLISTED IN THREE CATEGORIES AT WIND INVESTMENT AWARDS

RES, the world’s largest independent renewable energy company, has been nominated for three awards in the Wind Investment Awards 2023.

The company has been shortlisted for the Asset Management award in recognition of its efforts to deliver best in class asset management by harnessing cutting edge technology. The company is blending its physical engineering capability with their technology engineering to produce digital solutions that can be used to benefit the industry as a whole. RES has won this category for the past two years running.

It has also been shortlisted in the Onshore Developer of the Year category, having successfully delivered 23GW of new renewable capacity across the globe in its 40-year history.
