The unit, to be located at Osterund will work with Swedish independent wind farm developer Borevind AG, said RES, part of the Sir Robert McAlpine construction group. "We believe (Borevind's) local knowledge and skills together with RES' experience will lead to sucessful projects in this exciting new market," RES Development Manager Peter Quilleash said in a statement. RES specialises in turn-key wind farms and operates in several overseas countries including the U.S., where it recently finished the world's largest wind farm, with capacity pf 280 megawatts, in Texas.
