A-Power Energy Generation Systems just announced that will work with US Renewable Energy Group and American Nevada Group to build a wind turbine production and assembly plant in Nevada. Once completed, the plant will be capable of producing 1,100 megawatts worth of advanced wind turbines each year.
The plant will also bring approximately 1,000 long-term jobs to Nevada, plus jobs generated by construction.
In a press release, John Lin, A-Power’s Director and COO, commented on the news:
“We are committed to clean energy development and this partnership, which will allow us to expand our presence in the American renewable energy sector and create over a thousand jobs in Nevada.
