The two-storey design and build project will comprise two laboratory areas and an office area for engineering staff.聽
Primary purpose of the building is to establish a test and simulation centre for high voltage DC interconnectors required to connect offshore wind power generation to the mainland network.
Siemens hopes that the centre will serve as a catalyst for the renewable technology development in the region and will create a flagship for sustainable technology in the Manchester and northwest region.聽
Work is due to start on site this month and complete in March 2012.
