Thank you to AEP, TEi Services and NEM Group for opening their doors yet again to the Veterans Manufacturing Tour on 30 August. An interactive group got to see how local businesses will be a great option for them post service.

The final stage of the Kidston Clean Energy Hub, the Kidston Wind Farm, has been declared a prescribed project, ensuring the delivery of the project that will create 200 construction jobs.
“The Kidston Wind Farm project is expected to create around 200 construction jobs and 10 permanent jobs from ongoing operations.” Minister for Regional Development and Manufacturing Glenn Butcher said TEi Services was one of the local suppliers working on the project. “TEi Services is a great example of a company that’s forming part of our new renewable energy manufacturing supply chain.”

This is a Great Story for Matt and the employment he gained but it is also a Great Story for the work TEi does for the Veteran Community.
