The resignation of the fossil-to-wind trailblazer prompted an outpouring of tributes from normally hard-bitten financial analysts, who hailed his transformational role at the Danish group.
Poulsen was non-committal over his future plans, but confirmed they don't include leading the energy transition of another oil and & gas group.
The second high-profile exit was Markus Tacke at Siemens Gamesa "by mutual agreement". Unlike Poulsen, Tacke won't be hanging around until a successor is found – the turbine OEM immediately named offshore chief Andreas Nauen as his replacement.
Recharge spent the latter part of last week providing comprehensive coverage of US Offshore Wind 2020 Virtual, as official news provider to the high-profile industry event.

But Recharge kicked-off the proceedings in style with two exclusive in-depth articles – a long-read interview with Thomas Brostrøm, the North America chief of Orsted, and a feature on the transmission challenges facing US offshore.
