Boston, MA (March 2, 2023) — WindESCo has been named to Fast Company’s prestigious annual list of the World’s Most Innovative Companies for 2023.
This year’s list highlights the businesses at the forefront of their respective industries, paving the way for the innovations of tomorrow. These companies are setting the standard with some of the greatest accomplishments of the modern world. In addition to the World’s 50 Most Innovative Companies, 540 organizations are recognized across 54 sectors and regions.
The company has built its reputation in the renewable energy industry by delivering attractive and measurable performance improvements through innovations in data analysis and IIoT. The company’s flagship product improves turbine performance by finding previously unknowable opportunities to increase energy production without limiting turbine life. Its newest offering, WindESCo Swarm™ leverages IIoT to create collective control of entire wind plants, allowing turbines to work together and learn from each other to optimize output. Swarm delivers significant plant-wide energy production improvements and protects turbines from extreme weather events that have become more common due to climate change. By optimizing existing wind assets, WindESCo helps offset the need for fossil fuels as energy producers work towards NetZero.
WindESCo Founder and CEO, Mo Dua, noted, “It’s an honor to be recognized by Fast Company for the work we’re doing to speed the renewable energy transition. The world is at a critical inflection point and our team is driven every day by the knowledge that improving the performance of wind turbines is possible today. To make renewable energy more appealing to investors and consumers, our next generation onshore and offshore wind fleets must be optimized for production at commissioning.”
Fast Company’s editors and writers sought out the companies making the biggest strides around the globe. They also judged nominations received through their application process.
The World’s Most Innovative Companies is Fast Company’s signature franchise and one of its most highly anticipated editorial efforts of the year. It provides a firsthand look at the inspiring and innovative efforts of companies across all sectors of the economy.
“What a strange and thrilling year it has been to honor this year’s Most Innovative Companies. This year’s list compiles some of the most cutting-edge groundbreakers who are changing our world every single day, from legacy organizations like McDonald’s to upstarts like MrBeast and institutions such as NASA. Everyone on this list does something completely, uniquely different, yet, they all have one thing in common: innovation,” said Fast Company editor-in-chief Brendan Vaughan.
Fast Company will host its third annual Most Innovative Companies Summit on April 19 and 20. The virtual summit celebrates the Most Innovative Companies in business, and provides an inside look at cutting-edge business trends and what it takes to innovate in 2023.
