POCATELLO, Idaho — Manufacturer of two-bladed utility-scale wind turbines, Nordic Windpower, Ltd. has selected the southeastern Idaho city of Pocatello as the site for its new turbine manufacturing facility for the North American market.
The company plans to create more than 160 new technical, engineering, and administrative jobs at the new Idaho-based facility, with additional positions at the company's operational centers in California and the UK.
As a result of Idaho's assistance, Nordic has several options for expansion, up to four times the size of its leased 42,786 square-foot facility.
Volume production is expected to commence in Q3 for turbine delivery in November 2008, with anticipated production of at least 20 turbines monthly by September 2009.
