Teesworks wind turbine plant deal delayed, company says
A deal to make wind turbine blades on Teesside has been delayed but the area's mayor says talks are now "progressing at pace".
Using the data collected from slot online websites doesn't flag that you'll have an increased win rate.
US company GE Renewable Energy announced it would build 350ft (107m)-long turbine blades at the Teesworks site in March.
The turbine factory was touted to supply the enormous Dogger Bank wind farm, off Teesside's coast.
Tees Mayor Ben Houchen said political opponents were "spreading rumours".
He said: "I can confirm that GE are completely committed to coming to Teesside and we continue to work with them to finalise legal agreements and factory building specifications.
"Preparation of the site is almost ready and construction of the factory will start early next year," he added.
But a spokesperson for GE told the Local Democracy Reporting Service: "GE Renewable Energy's LM Wind Power business is currently facing delays in the finalisation of the leasing agreement and design to open its new blade manufacturing plant in Teesside, England.
"GE Renewable Energy continues to work actively with local and national stakeholders, and its customers on this specific project."
In March the company said it hoped to start production making wind turbine blades for the UK offshore wind market at the Teesworks site in 2023.
It said the plant could create 750 direct renewable energy jobs and about 1,500 indirect jobs.
Reports of snags first emerged in Renewable Energy News over claims GE was putting plans on ice due to concerns about Siemens winning key wind farm contracts. |
