Windsor, Ontario will soon be the lucky recipient of some badly needed green jobs. The Ontario city was hit very hard by the loss of auto industry manufacturing jobs in the recession. Michigan-based Windtronics will be constructing a new plant in Windsor with the help of the Ontario government.

The company thinks that 174 jobs will be created in the area by the new plant, and many more in the field once they start shipping the product. Their small to medium-sized wind turbines take a two man crew one day to assemble, and they hope to be producing 5000 of them a month by May of 2010.

This article has more details on the new wind turbine plant.

For more on the Honeywell Wind Turbine, which is designed to supplement power to the average home, see the manufacturer’s website.
