Windmills

I just saw an ad for wind turbines on TV and it was a company called Suzlon. Since I had never heard of this company I looked up the top ten companies producing wind turbines and I listed them below. Note that only one is an American company. I am wondering if the green jobs that wind energy is suppose to produce will be American jobs or jobs overseas producing wind turbines to be used here in American.





1. Vestas (Denmark) 35,000 MW[1]

2. Enercon (Germany) 19,000 MW[2]

3. Gamesa (Spain) 16,000 MW[3]

4. GE Energy (Germany / United States) 15,000 MW[4]

5. Siemens (Denmark / Germany) 8,800 MW[5]

6. Suzlon (India) 6,000MW[6]

7. Nordex (Germany) 5,400 MW[7]

8. Acciona (Spain) 4,300 MW[8]

9. REpower (Germany) 3,000 MW [9]

10. Goldwind (China) 2,889 MW[10]
