The company has also signed a long-term agreement with Gamesa to continue supplying wind blades from its existing Juarez manufacturing facility and to begin supplying blades from the second plant. TPI’s manufacturing capacity in Juarez will be used to supply Gamesa projects in Latin America and the US.

The company’s new Juarez manufacturing facility will consist of a 360,000 square foot building set on a 62 acre site, from which TPI may expand its production capacity to serve multiple customers in the future.
