Automotive firm to make turbine gearboxes in Ga.

An auto parts supplier in Gainesville will expand its operation so it can produce gearboxes for wind turbines.
Gov. Sonny Perdue says the new operation by the ZF Group represents a $90 million investment and will employ 215 people when fully operational. A groundbreaking ceremony was held Friday at the Hall County site.
Construction will soon begin on a facility allowing the firm to produce gearboxes that help turn wind gusts into electricity. Production is scheduled to start in January 2012.
