Evance Wind Turbines, a leading UK manufacturer of small wind turbines, has reported sales growth of over 200% for 2011 and entering 2012 with a strong forward order book for its R9000 small wind turbine. Continued strong demand has seen Evance double the size of its facility to increase manufacturing capability and increasing the workforce by 25%.
