Boralex, Énergir and Hydro-Québec have announced a partnership to develop three wind projects of 400 MW each on the Seigneurie de Beaupré territory, Quebec, Canada.
Under the agreement, Boralex, Énergir and Hydro-Québec will participate equally in the projects through affiliated companies. The energy generated would be purchased by Hydro-Québec under three power purchase agreements and included in the volume of energy available to supply its various markets. The decision regarding whether each project is carried out will depend on Hydro-Québec’s evolving needs. More specifically, the partners are proposing the following projects:
- Des Neiges Wind Farm – South, in the RCM of La Côte-de-Beaupré (400 MW)
- Des Neiges Wind Farm – Charlevoix, in the RCM of Charlevoix (400 MW)
- Des Neiges Wind Farm – West, in the RCM of La Côte-de-Beaupré and potentially in the municipality of Stoneham-et-Tewkesbury in the RCM of La Jacques-Cartier (400 MW).
