Vestas, for their sustainable turbine recycling technology. The organization’s use of circular processes in manufacturing and service means that recovered materials can be useful in applications outside of the wind industry. This is enabled by artificial intelligence systems that allow turbine-specific life cycle assessments in real-time. Vestas’s use of technology is a brilliant example of how technology can help society deliver on its sustainability agenda. Vestas was also awarded as the overall winner across the Nordics.
