Pearl Road Auto Parts and Wrecking, a fourth generation family-owned car recycling business at 5000 Pearl Rd., along Interstate 480, will become the first business in Cleveland to capture the wind to generate electricity. A ground-breaking ceremony took place May 15 and the erection of the turbine will take place the end of June.
The wind turbine, which will sit atop a 140-foot tower, will be installed on a 4.7 acre auto recycling yard at Pearl Road Auto Parts and Wrecking. Teaming up on the $295,000 wind project are Jon Kaplan, vice president of Pearl Road, and sustainability advocate Stefanie Spear, the project manager and executive director of EcoWatch Ohio.
