Ricardo Inc. and LMSÂ International, two Michigan-based design, engineering and testing companies will jointly market their wind energy expertise in North America through the new North American Wind Energy Innovation and Development Center.Â
The North American Wind Energy Innovation and Development Center is an umbrella organization through which equipment suppliers, government agencies, utilities and other renewable-energy stakeholders can draw on the technical expertise and facilities available at Ricardo's Detroit engineering center in Van Buren Township and LMS North America's engineering offices in Troy. Â
Services will include individual component and systems-level design, development and integration, as well as software-based modeling and simulation, and physical testing of both new and legacy systems in the lab or in the field.
"Developing more energy from sustainable sources like wind is a national priority, and Michigan is one of the few places in the world with the concentration of design, engineering and manufacturing expertise to make it happen," says Gov. Jennifer M. Granholm, D-Mich. "The North America Wind Energy Innovation and Development Center will be a catalyst for the kinds of innovation that are critical for job creation and necessary to meet our environmental and energy independence goals.’ SOURCE: Ricardo
