Wind Turbines Update
Apr 03, 2016
In 2015, two companies, NEXTEra and Renewable Energy Systems (“RES”), proposed wind energy projects to be located in the north east corner of the Township of Addington Highlands close to Denbigh and in North Frontenac Township. On March 10, 2016, the Independent Electricity System Operator (“IESO”), a provincial government body, announced which Large Renewable Procurement (“LRP”) companies and projects would be awarded contracts under the 2015 process. Neither NEXTEra nor RES was successful in securing contracts for their proposed wind projects in Addington Highlands and North Frontenac. It appears two more LRP processes are planned: one for 2016 and another for 2017. It is not known whether either company will resubmit a bid for consideration in the future by the IESO.
