Video case study - Wind turbine production is stalled

Jim Riley

A super video to use at various stages for an AS or A2 SOW. The world’s largest wind turbine manufacturer (Vestas) is considering closing its wind turbine blade factory on the Isle of Wight due to a lack of future orders - despite wind power being perceived as a high growth market! Great for considering the nature of investment in capacity, the effect of factory closure on a local community and topics too!
