A Scottish company has chosen a Houston suburb as its home for North American operations.

Renewable Parts, an independent supply chain solutions for the wind industry that works with remanufactured and refurbished products, announced that its North American operations will be based in Humble. The new office will host the parts recirculation workshop to service the North American market.

"Being close to Houston was important for us as a business. Texas has a thriving wind industry and an abundance of turbines that we have vast experience on," CEO Michael Forbes says in a news release, "And Houston is widely considered the Energy Capital of the World — a great opportunity for us to find good people and collaborate with some of the many great business that are located there.

"We were also helped through the process of establishing our new venture by the Greater Houston Partnership, who gave us a warm welcome and connected us with many of the people who have gone on to play a part in the business set-up, from finding a location to supporting us with the legal side of things," he continues.

For over a decade, Renewable Parts successfully has been recirculating wind turbine component parts at scale for service providers, turbine operators and even turbine OEMs.

Craig Rhodes, senior vice president of economic development for the Greater Houston Partnership hopes the new location will help boost the local economy.

"Renewable Parts' decision to establish their North American operations in Humble, Texas, is further testament to the Houston region's strong infrastructure, skilled workforce and unmatched industry expertise,” Rhodes says in the release.
