The nation’s largest wind blade testing facility is opening for business on Boston’s waterfront. Governor Deval Patrick is scheduled to join other officials today for a ribbon-cutting ceremony for the Wind Technology Testing Center, the first commercial blade testing facility in the nation capable of handling blades as long as 90 meters. In 2009, US Energy Secretary Steven Chu announced that Massachusetts would receive $25 million in federal stimulus dollars for construction of the testing center on Boston Harbor in Charlestown.
