“Vestas’ performance improved throughout 2023, and we are pleased that Vestas returned to profitability and achieved the upper end of our guidance ,” said Henrik Andersen , Vestas’s Group President & CEO. “ We continued to progress on our strategic priorities and strengthen our commercial and operational discipline, which together with growth in our Service business helped us achieve a revenue of EUR 15.4bn.”

“Our strategic path towards our long-term ambitions is clear, and our focus remains to stay disciplined to continue building our momentum and execute as strongly as possible,” Henrik Andersen said.
