Resource from: Krdo Breaking News 26 Sep,2016
PUEBLO, Colo. - Vestas announced Friday plans to expand its facility and add jobs in Pueblo.

The company says it will add 108 new full-time jobs in Pueblo by October 1.

The total cost of the expansion is approximately $18.5 million. The city kicked in $2,484,000 from its half cent economic development tax as an incentive.

“The Pueblo community has been a perfect match for Vestas Towers, not only is this location close to our final customers with good rail and road ways, but the knowledgeable workforce here make us a great company for this community,” said Anthony Knopp, Vice President of Vestas Towers Americas, Inc., “These are sustainable jobs we are creating, we think the future for wind energy is bright. In 2015, wind energy accounted for about 25 percent of new energy installations globally. The cost of wind energy varies regionally, but it’s coming down across the board for wind and is basically in the same price range as coal and gas in many markets. This development is fueling our continued growth here in Pueblo.”

“As a community, we must have found a formula for success with a great workforce and incentives to not only attract Vestas here 8 years ago but again assisting in this major expansion.,” said Ron Francis, PEDCO Chairman of the Board. “We in PEDCO believe in manufacturing and are committed to manufacturing in Pueblo as we always like to say we are the Manufacturing Center of the Rockies. This is our history and Vestas is helping write that history as well as shape our future.”
