DNV has close to 9,000 employees world wide. DNV has been involved in the renewable energy sector since the late 1970's with the first wind turbines installed in Denmark and has expanded its renewable energy services for the wind energy, carbon capture and storage and wave and tidal energy sectors. We have deep roots in the major markets in North America and Europe, as well as established offices in most of the emerging markets throughout the world. As the wind industry moves offshore, DNV combines its experience in onshore wind with extensive knowledge of offshore energy and our strong maritime history to offer an unparalleled set of capabilities.
