In 2011, Siemens Gamesa and Associated British Ports signed a memorandum of understanding concerning the construction of a wind energy machine manufacturing plant at Alexandra Dock. The factory was formally inaugurated on 1 December 2016. Siemens Gamesa submitted plans in February 2021 to double the size of its wind turbine blade manufacturing facility in the city in a move that could support the creation of hundreds of jobs.
