Vestas Wind Systems scores 57/100 (Making progress) on SINK's independent climate assessment — scored from public data only, no company payment can change a number. Last verified May 2026.
That places Vestas Wind Systems joint 25th of 809 companies scored, and 2nd of 2 in Renewable Energy / Clean Energy Generation.
Vestas leads on renewable energy sourcing and transparency but stumbles on absolute emissions reduction and biodiversity. Its intensity-based Scope 3 target masks rising absolute supply chain emissions. Will miss its 2025 interim target. Lacks formal biodiversity commitments despite offshore wind exposure.
