Vespera Energy 2022: Words from our CEO
Word from the CEO, Conor McGuigan:
The year 2022 put energy front and centre on all our minds and challenged world leaders across the globe as it hit us all on a local level. We saw soaring prices and fuel poverty became a familiar term to us all. At Vespera Energy we acknowledged those around us, and we will continue to endeavour to do our best and secure as much renewable opportunities as we can.
However, we need to work together to achieve this as there is hope and I would like to end this year with exactly that, let’s all push for a cleaner, greener, renewable future together.
