Full job description

Forsa Energy (“Forsa”) was established in 2011 to develop, construct, own, and operate energy
assets across Europe. Until September 2017, Forsa Energy was known as Velocita Energy
Developments and 2020 Renewables. The renewables business subsequently built approximately
230 MW of wind projects in the UK and France.

Following the successful sale of these businesses, the company made a strategic decision to
broaden its technology base beyond onshore wind and rebranded under the name: “Forsa Energy”.

approximately 300 MW.
