CS Wind is to build a new offshore
tower manufacturing facility in
Campbeltown, Scotland, as a result
of a multi-million pound investment
from Dong Energy. This investment
will give Dong Energy preferred
access rights to towers for its offshore
windfarms.
This will be the first facility in the
UK that can manufacture towers for
offshore wind turbines and will be
located adjacent to CS Wind's current
onshore facilities. It will be able to
produce at least 50 towers a year and
70 jobs will be safeguarded as a result.
