Broadwind to supply wind towers in Texas

Posted August 19, 2008 11:00 pm

NAPERVILLE - Broadwind Energy Inc. announced that its wholly-owned subsidiary, Tower Tech Systems Inc., has signed a contract with Nordex USA Inc. to manufacture wind tower sections. Another Broadwind subsidiary, Badger Transport Inc., received a contract to deliver the sections to various Texas locations for Nordex. These contracts mark the first for Broadwind with Germany-based Nordex, one of the world's leading turbine suppliers. The four-section towers will support N90/2500 kW turbines. Tower Tech expects to supply the first Nordex sections in early 2009. The integrated order represents the first time Broadwind has included logistics coordination in its service package and is the first order for Tower Tech's new plant in Abilene, Texas. Both facilities are expected to be operational in the first quarter of 2009.
