Vestas to build a large research and development centre

Vestas has decided to build two new technology centres – one in Aarhus, one in Asia – as part of the company’s R&D activities. Vestas now concentrates its Danish R&D activities in Aarhus. The new 12,500m² high-end technology centre will be built on a 25,000m² site that the group already owns in Skejby on the northern outskirts of Aarhus. In time, the centre will create up to 500 high technology jobs. Vestas also has plans for a similar technology centre in Asia – the exact location has yet to be decided. Vestas expects to start the Aarhus construction later this year.
