Elizabeth Colbert-Busch on Energy & Oil

Clemson's Restoration Institute: 1000s of wind-turbine jobs

I know what it takes for business to survive and thrive in South Carolina. As an experienced businesswoman, bringing more jobs to South Carolina is my number one priority.

I've helped bring thousands of jobs to the Charleston area through Clemson's Restoration Institute, the world's largest wind turbine testing facility. This facility is providing good-paying, high quality jobs, and related manufacturing businesses are now lining up to come here to provide thousands more. I support investing in a clean-energy economy. Here in the 1st District, alternative energy provides good jobs with salaries above the national average. The market is growing--projections estimate that the wind industry alone will add an additional 20,00
