Nova Scotia Building Wind Generators

Nova Scotia Power and Daewoo Shipbuilding and Marine Engineering (DSME) have agreed to work together to build and deploy made-in Nova Scotia wind towers and blades across the province.

Nova Scotia Power will work with DSME on having the Trenton plant supply the towers and blades required by the utility during the next several years. In addition, they will encourage the use of those components by independent power producers working on their own or in partnership with communities to develop wind power.

This is encouraging. With China competing strongly on the Solar and Wind generator markets it's good to have some domestic competition getting in the game and keeping some of the green technology expertise on shore.
