Seaforth Targets Export Markets
Focusing increasingly on the export market, Seaforth Energy Inc., the Dartmouth-based maker of 50-kilowatt wind turbines, has recently completed installations in Scotland and Italy and is ramping up its sales effort in the Caribbean.
The company is in the midst of installing 11 of its AOC 15/50 turbines in Nova Scotia in a five-month period that will end in March, developed under the province’s community feed-in tariff, or Comfit, program. That program encourages communities to finance and develop renewable energy projects and sell the energy to Nova Scotia Power at a fixed rate.
