The project comprises 66 GE 1.5 MW Wind Turbines (model 1.5 SLE). Each turbine has a blade diameter of 77 metres (253 ft), and is mounted on an 80-metre (260 ft) tubular tower. An important measure of renewable energy generation is the capacity factor (actual output per year divided by the nameplate output). In 2009 the output was 232,296 ...
The wind farm is located on the shores of Lake Huron in Huron-Kinloss Township, approximately 220 kilometres west of Toronto and 140 kilometres north of London. [ 1 ] The project is expected to have the capacity to generate enough zero-emission electricity to power 24,000 homes and offset approximately 66,000 tonnes of carbon dioxide annually.
This is a list of the ten largest operational wind farms in Canada.The name of the wind farm is the name used by the energy company when referring to the farm. The Centennial Wind Power Facility in Saskatchewan was the first wind farm in Canada to have a capacity of at least 100 MW upon completion in 2006. [1]
St. Joseph Wind Farm (French: Parc éolien de Saint-Joseph) is a wind energy power plant in southern Manitoba, Canada. It has 60 turbines with a total rating of 138 megawatts. First proposed in 2007, the turbines started operation in early 2011. The investment in the plant was C$355 million by the San Francisco-based Pattern Energy Group, with ...
The Kent Hills Wind Farm seen from Moncton. Kent Hills Wind Farm is a wind farm located southeast from Prosser Brook, New Brunswick. The wind farm was completed in three phases between 2008 and 2018. [1] The farm was the first in New Brunswick. It is owned and operated by TransAlta and the power is purchased by NB Power for supply to consumers. [2]
The power will be purchased by Hydro One for distribution to consumers. The wind farm consists of eighty-six 2.3-megawatt Siemens model Mark II wind turbines situated on the western portion of Wolfe Island. [2] Once completed, the 197.8 MW project was expected to generate approximately 594 gigawatt-hours of renewable power annually; enough to ...
The LCOE of floating wind power increases with the distance from shore. [36] The Lieberose Photovoltaic Park – one of the largest in Germany – had a nameplate capacity at opening of 52.79 megawatt and cost some €160 million to build [37] [38] or €3031 per kW. With a yearly output of some 52 GWh (equivalent to just over 5.9 MW) it has a ...
The Amaranth Wind Farm, also known as the Melancthon EcoPower Centre, is a 199.5 megawatt (MW) wind farm in Amaranth and Melancthon Township, near Shelburne, Ontario. The centre is owned and operated by TransAlta and at the time of opening, was Canada's largest wind energy installation.
