Vestas Expands into U.S. Energy Capital with New Office in Houston

Vestas, a leading global wind turbine manufacturer, is pleased to announce the opening of a new corporate office in Houston, Texas – the energy capital of the U.S. Vestas currently employs over 500 people in the state of Texas and looks forward to welcoming more colleagues across its business units to the new Houston office location. 

“Houston is the ideal location to expand our office operations in the U.S. due to its central proximity to many of our wind projects, customers, and suppliers. Producing homegrown energy, powered by the hard work of Americans nationwide, is critically important and we look forward to increasing our presence in Texas and continuing to provide generational jobs to Americans across the state,” said Laura Beane, President of Vestas North America. 

Houston Mayor John Whitmire welcomed Vestas with a statement on behalf of the City. "Today marks an important achievement for the City of Houston as we welcome Vestas,” Whitmire said. “The company's decision to establish a new corporate office underscores our city's commitment to sustainable energy and promises to provide quality jobs and economic growth. We are excited to support Vestas' mission to drive innovation in renewable energy. We look forward to a prosperous partnership that benefits our community." 

Texas is the leading state in the U.S. for wind energy capacity and energy production, representing 28% of all U.S. wind-sourced electricity in 2024. Vestas has installed over 3,500 turbines in Texas which help power nearly 7 million homes. 

"The announcement of Vestas, a global leader in wind energy, opening a new office in Houston is a significant and exciting development for the region. This decision underscores Houston’s position as a premier energy hub and desirable location for businesses, bolstered by our talent, world-class infrastructure, and a pro-business environment," said Steve Kean, Greater Houston Partnership President and CEO. 

With this expansion, Vestas’ U.S. office spaces will span across 4 time zones between Portland, Oregon – Brighton and Windsor, Colorado where our nacelles and blades factories are located – Houston, Texas – and Boston, Massachusetts and Portland, Maine. Vestas also services 315 wind farms across 31 states.
