German utility RWE AG plans to expand its investment in wind energy even as the broader sector struggles with soaring interest rates and inflation.

The company expects to invest €55 billion ($60.4 billion) overall on green technologies by 2030, it said during its Capital Markets Day, held in London on Tuesday. About 35% of the amount will be devoted to offshore wind and 40% to onshore wind and solar.
