Sunny in Cleveland?

Kevin Day, November 19th, 2007

The PD writes that a German solar company is strongly considering moving manufacturing jobs to Cleveland. They only employ 200 people globally, but it’s still a good sign for Cleveland. Good ‘ol CWRU is one of the key factors in their decision too. A company representative had this to say:

“We were impressed by the ready access to the research environment. That is critical to us — access to research universities,” he said. “We had a very promising meeting with Case Western Reserve University.”

It’s not official though, and it depends a lot on new energy legislation currently being debated in Columbus. I’m ashamed to say I don’t know much about the bill, so I’m going to read up on it and contact my representative so that I can help make this happen.
