CSW welding a tower Credit Raymond Hosie Work on the UK’s first offshore wind tower factory officially has started in Argyll at a ground-breaking ceremony on July 7. CS Wind UK’s base in Campbeltown, which currently employs 175 people, is set for a GBP 27 million investment after its acquisition by South Korean manufacturer CS Wind Corporation in April (2016). It is expected that the investment will create 160 new jobs at the factory.

The investment will increase production volume at the existing onshore wind tower factory and allow for the fabrication of larger diameter towers for the offshore wind sector. Vattenfall and CS Wind UK have recently signed an MoU to work together on a number of onshore and offshore wind projects in the future.  CS Wind will also be signing a MoU with Siemens to produce up to 200 offshore towers between 2017 and 2019.
