Montana's Two Dot Wind refurbishing turbines, including those in Martinsdale

April 21, 2008

Two Dot Wind http://twodotwind.com/ doesn't use new turbines manufactured in Europe like the big companies.

Instead, it buys old turbines from California or Denmark and refurbishes them, like it did the 19 towers located on the Martinsdale Colony. All of the refurbishing work is done in Montana, with Montana labor, said Dave Healow, one of the Billings-based company's owners.

"It's basically Montana's only wind industry," said Healow, a physician and third-generation Montanan. "The rest of it is all trucked in and put up here."
