Multinational energy company Orsted will take on a new name and identity following the completion of Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners’ (CIP) acquisition of the company's European onshore business, through its fifth flagship fund, CI V.

The business will now operate as Perigus Energy, which has selected Cork as its European headquarters.
