A company that manufactures wind turbine control and electrical systems for the energy segment, kk-electronic expanded its North American operations, opening an office and distribution center in Lenexa, Kansas.

The new facility will allow kk-electronic to better serve its North American customers and focus on further expansion. “We wanted to show our commitment to our North American clients with a new one-stop shop for product distribution,” said Steve Goble, service sales manager for the U.S. “We chose the Kansas City area because of its central location and strong business community.”

“Our key to success is a dedicated team with profound production knowledge that keep the turbines up and running,” said Goble.

“It’s exciting to see the wind energy industry continue to grow in our state,” Kansas Commerce Secretary Pat George said. “kk-electronic’s new Lenexa office will help Kansas continue to be a leader in wind energy development.”
