New CEO Vineyard 1 project
Wind Energy – U.S.A.
Vineyard Wind 1 Project Director Klaus S. Moeller is being promoted to CEO.
Moeller, who has served as Project Director for Vineyard Wind 1 since 2019, will replace Lars T. Pedersen, who will remain on the board of Vineyard Wind and will shift his focus to CIP’s US-based offshore wind development, including the OCS-A 522 Lease Area which was acquired by CIP following the recent corporate restructuring.
The rest of the leadership team, including Deputy CEO Sy Oytan, Chief Development Officer Rachel Pachter, and General Counsel Jennifer Simon Lento will remain in place.
“I’m honored that I’ll be able to see Vineyard Wind 1 to completion in the role of Chief Executive Officer. Lars has been instrumental in driving this first project forward but also successfully laying the groundwork for a new industry in the US,” said Klaus S. Moeller.
“As the first commercial-scale offshore wind project in the US, we have set high standards for a new industry, not only in how we operate as a company, but in the practices we expect from our suppliers and contractors. We have an amazing team that are making sure these commitments are implemented through every step of the project.”
