Energy Composites Corporation (“ECC”) (NASDAQ OTC:ENCC) a
leading provider of composites-based solutions to the clean-tech
sector, today announced that it has entered into an agreement with
SSP Technology A/S of Kirkeby, Denmark (“SSP”), with the
purpose of entering into a strategic partnership and to establish a
joint venture. This strategic alliance will support both companies’
efforts to supply competitive blades to wind turbine generators for
North American customers.
With its base in Wisconsin Rapids, the joint venture will be
well-situated in the midst of the upcoming Great Lakes/Midwest wind
turbine market. In the coming years this region will set new
demands and lead the market for turbine performance, blade size and
manufacturing technologies.
SSP will offer customers the complete aerodynamic and structural
design for blades and moulds, production of prototype blades, and
ramp-up of blade production based on the partnership with ECC. ECC
will manufacture blades for all customers based either on the
customer’s own design or a blade design developed via the
partnership with SSP. The joint venture will manufacture moulds and
prefabricated root segments for both companies and their
customers.
Jamie Mancl, ECC’s founder and President, said “the cooperation
between our two experienced and innovative companies will add
significant value to the future offering of both companies to the
global wind turbine suppliers serving the North American market.
Each company can now offer truly unique solutions enabling our
customers to be truly competitive.”
Søren Brouer, CEO of SSP, agrees. “As the turbine blades get
larger, the need for intelligent and innovative blade design and
blade production technologies grow, and with this partnership, both
companies position themselves in the absolute lead among suppliers
of both blade design and contractual blade manufacturing. This
partnership allows us both to offer full range solutions to our
global customers. “
