Strategic assessment
Strategic execution
Scale grid technologies and gas services while restoring wind profitability and using energy-transition demand to expand backlog.
Capital allocation
Improving cash generation has reduced balance-sheet pressure and restored strategic flexibility.
Innovation and future investment
Grid hardware, power electronics, hydrogen-capable turbines and wind technology place the group directly inside global electrification investment.
Workforce and operating model
The turnaround has required operational restructuring alongside hiring for grid and power-infrastructure growth.
What could change the ranking
Risks and counterweights
Wind execution, project guarantees and long-cycle manufacturing complexity remain significant deductions.
Future editions can move the score materially when annual results, acquisitions, capital-allocation decisions, management changes, regulatory events or significant governance developments alter the evidence base.
