Danish offshore wind giant Orsted faced a fresh stock market hammering on Tuesday after the group announced a new billion-dollar impairment charge on the same day its foe Donald Trump ascended to the White House.

Orsted has installed the last turbine at its 913MW Borkum Riffgrund 3 wind farm in the North Sea, the first zero-subsidy offshore array built in Germany and the nation's largest wind farm constructed so far.

Orsted A/S recorded a 12.1 billion-krone hit on its earnings as the costs of offshore wind farms, particularly in the United States, keep rising.
