Woodward Plans to Build Wind Turbine Inverters in Colorado
"Woodward Governor Co. plans to add up to 100 new jobs in Colorado through the expansion of its wind turbine inverter business, which will include a new production line in northern Colorado to support the growing demand for clean energy in the U.S. Inverters are used to convert a wind turbine's variable output into grid-compatible electrical power."
Who said renewable energy isn't good for the economy? It is certainly boosting the Colorado economy. Thank goodness we have some progressive thinking here. While many of us here in Chaffee County have been complaining about all the wind we've been having the last week or so, we might want to turn that thinking in a more positive direction. It would be nice to see some wind turbines around here generating clean renewable energy.
