Wind Farmer Canada

The total capacity of all wind farms in Canada is approximately 570 MW as of June 2005. Roughly 48% of this capacity is from wind farms in the province of Alberta, and an additional 37% is contributed from wind farms in Quebec. The three largest wind farms in Canada are:

1. McBride Lake (near Fort Macleod, Alberta), 75MW
2. Summerview, (near Pincher Creek, Alberta), 68MW
3. Le Nordais Phase 1 (near Cap Chat, Quebec), 57MW

Government support for wind power continues to increase. The current Wind Power Production Incentive (WPPI) is expected quadruple its goal of 1,000 MW of wind power to 4,000 MW.
