Wind Tower Manufacturing Coming To Monroe
Monroe (WWJ)—Looking toward a greener future for Michigan, Ventower Industries broke ground in Monroe Tuesday on its wind tower manufacturing facility.
Ventower Chairman of the board, James Viciana, says it will create 150 jobs initially.
“I’ve been explaining the expansion plans that we have for this business,” Viciana said. “I hope you’re all aware… this is phase 1.”
Governor Jennifer Granholm and Congressman John Dingell were on hand for the groundbreaking of what will be a 115,000 square-foot facility.
Granholm says these wind towers and alternative energy will help the U.S. break its dependence on foreign oil.
