Broadwind Energy Subsidiary, Tower Tech Systems, to Expand Wind Tower Production Capacities

Production Facilities to be added in South Dakota and Texas

Broadwind Energy, Inc. announced that its wholly-owned subsidiary, Tower Tech Systems, will expand its wind tower manufacturing operations to Sioux Falls, S.D. and Abilene, Texas. Tower Tech Systems currently operates a manufacturing facility in Manitowoc, Wis. that has been producing wind towers since 2004.

Broadwind CEO J. Cameron Drecoll said transportation and logistics for tower sections have become increasingly complex and costly to the wind energy marketplace. Broadwind and Tower Tech will provide tower production capabilities close to major wind energy development areas and supply logistical services to project sites. He added that the service bundle will provide benefits to customers that will be unique in the industry, such as reducing risks associated with long-distance transport.
