No wind turbines in AH, North Frontenac - No solar farm in SF

Jeff Green | Mar 10, 2016

Opponents are breathing sigh of relief, and the township of Addington Highlands is no longer in line for $10 million infusion of money over 20 years. All  three wind proposals in Addington Highlands and North Frontenac failed to secure contracts under the Large Renewable Procurement (LRP) for Renewable Energy Projects, the Independent Electricity Systems Operator announced this morning. As well, all of the solar proposals in South Frontenac failed as well. Two wind projects in Eastern Ontario did succeed, however, including a 32 MW project in the Muinicipality of The NAtion near Ottawa, and a 100 mw project in North Stormont. Al arge Solar farm in Stone Mills, 54 mw, also made the cut. We are seeking commetn from the proponents in the region to see if they are planning to bid in round 2 of the LRP

Here is a link to the list of projects that received contracts.
