According to American media Vestas announced Tuesday that it will open a research and development office in Louisville in the state of Colorado. The office will employ up to 240 people over a number of years.
»We have invested very heavily in Colorado to have our base here for our North American wind manufacturing operations,« said Susan Innis, senior manager for government state relations for Vestas according to Colorado Daily.
Vestas made the announcement of the opening at the Louisville City Council meeting. Vestas will pay an average salary to its employees of USD 80,000 annually.
Vestas expects to hire up to 100 people in its first year in Louisville. The aim of the research and development office is to »increase turbine efficiency and lower the cost of energy«.
Vestas chose Louisville because it will provide easy access for the company’s engineers to its manufacturing sites throughout the state.
Representatives of Vestas came before the City Council on Tuesday to ask for a business assistance package from Louisville that will rebate part of Vestas’ building permit fee, which should amount to USD 5,500. The council approved the company’s request. Direkt/BNS
