In 2005, the company (then called Zilkha Renewable Energy, and owned by Selim Zilkha and Michael Zilkha) was purchased by investment bank Goldman Sachs for an undisclosed sum and renamed Horizon Wind Energy. In 2007, the company was acquired by Energias de Portugal for $2.15 billion[1] and later renamed EDP Renewables North America.[2]

gollark: *Religious* reasons?
gollark: Perhaps this pandemic will lead to people wearing masks more often if they're sick, or maybe people will get bored of it and forget about it in a year.
gollark: I would be worried if someone with ebola was just wandering around randomly.
gollark: I mean, none of those are pandemics right now, so the political will to do anything about it doesn't exist.
gollark: And after just 20ish months and hundreds of millions of doses administered!
