Wind-Based Power Company Creating Jobs in Lubbock, TX

An power company by the name of Zachry High Voltage is creating new job opportunities in Lubbock, Texas.

The relatively new company is helping to make wind power a larger player in the local economy. Zachry is currently engaged in creating a generating station for a company called Golden Spread.

The  generators being used can become operational with as little as 15-minutes advance notice, a promising feature which makes the use of wind-based power more viable.

“That compares with some of your much larger facilities; that time could be anywhere from 3 hours to nine hours,” said Michael Lake of Zachry High Voltage.
