Chinese wind turbine manufacturer Mingyang Smart Energy is considering locations in Europe, including Spain, for a new manufacturing facility after the UK government blocked support for the company’s planned Scottish factory on national security grounds, Reuters reported.
The company paused plans for the GBP 1.5 billion (around EUR 1.7 billion) Scottish facility after the UK government said in March it could not support the use of Mingyang’s turbines in offshore wind projects around the country.
