Acciona Windpower has inaugurated its wind turbine hub assembly plant in Simões Filho (Bahia, Brazil). This is Acciona's first industrial initiative in Brazil.
The assembly plant will produce 135 hubs a year for the 3MW AW-3000 wind turbine. The plant will employ 30 people. In addition, the plant will induce 180 indirect jobs in companies supplying components to the plant. Acciona Windpower will also source blades and towers from Brazilian manufacturers, leading to the creation of some 500 additional jobs.
