Orsted is lighting up three wind turbines in rainbow colours tomorrow at Avedøre Power Station in Copenhagen, Denmark to mark Copenhagen 2021 – WorldPride and EuroGames.
The Danish energy company is an official partner aiming to promote diversity and inclusion and the turbines will be lit up until the end of the event on 22 August.
The wind turbines will be illuminated at 22:30 CEST in connection with Copenhagen and Malmö sharing the hosting of WorldPride 2021, EuroGames, and the Human Rights Forum.
The arrangement goes by the common title Copenhagen 2021.
The move comes as Orsted wants to mark and promote diversity and inclusion in the workplace and in society.
Orsted executive vice president and chief HR officer Henriette Fenger Ellekrog said: “Even though we’ve come a long way, there’s still a struggle to be fought to ensure a fully inclusive global society.
“As a sustainable company, we work not only for a greener world, but also to be an inclusive company with room for everyone and equal opportunities for all, regardless of personal characteristics.
“The three wind turbines in rainbow colours are a symbol of this.
“We’re pleased to support Copenhagen 2021.
“The event is a tribute to diversity and the right to be who you are – which we support globally at Orsted.
“We’re proud of the diversity in our workforce and find that different perspectives strengthen our ability to be innovative as we pursue our vision of creating a world that runs entirely on green energy.”
