Broadwind Energy nets $34 million in new tower orders

CICERO - Broadwind Energy announced it has received $34 million in new tower orders from two U.S. wind turbine manufacturers.

Broadwind will produce these towers for delivery in 2016 and 2017. The company did not announce who its clients were or further specifics about the orders.

"The outlook for the wind industry in the U.S. has strengthened over the past few months with the extension of the PTC and the release of the latest IRS guidelines which provide specific guidance supporting new wind farm," said Broadwind interim CEO Stephanie Kushner. "The employees at our Manitowoc and Abilene plants are producing high-quality towers to help meet this demand."
