Danish wind turbine manufacturer Vestas Wind Systems said on Monday, 25 June, it will close a factory in Hohhot, Inner Mongolia autonomous region.
Along with this announcement, they also stated that 300 to 350 jobs would have to be cut due to the forecast of low demand for kilowatt in the future.
The wind turbine manufacturer said it would phase out production of kilowatt turbines, including the V52 to 850 kilowatt and V60 to 850 kilowatt turbines produced at the Hohhot factory to be closed.
“On the basis of thorough internal analyses, Vestas projects a low market demand for the kilowatt platform in the coming years,” the company said.
