US based renewable energy company Origis Energy has hired a new Chief Operating Officer (COO) and Chief Financial Officer (CFO) to join the senior leadership team. Vikas Anand comes to the fold with more than 2 decades of work experience, mostly in the clean energy domain.

Anand worked in various positions within General Electric (GE) over the years, including as the CEO of GE Renewable Energy—Onshore Wind Americas. He also served as the CFO of GE Onshore Wind and as CFO and Investment Committee member of GE Capital's Energy Financial Services.
Before GE, Anand was the co-founder and sponsor at GoGreen Investments and was an advisor to Brookfield Asset Management, according to his CV.

This makes him an invaluable addition to the Origis leadership team," said CEO and President of Origis, Guy Vanderhaegen. "The timing is critical as we transform from a leading renewable development platform to a broader decarbonization solutions provider to empower a wider customer base to reach their sustainability goals."
