Invenergy Wind has announced the completion of construction and the official start of commercial operation of its Roncevaux wind farm in Québec, Canada.
Roncevaux is located in the Ruisseau-Ferguson unorganized territory in the MRC d’Avignon, Québec, Canada, approximately 500 kilometres east of Québec City. The 74.8MW project features 34 General Electric GE 2.2-107 wind turbines. Energy output will be purchased by Hydro-Québec Distribution through a 25-year power purchase agreement. The Roncevaux wind facility is situated close to Invenergy’s existing Le Plateau, Le Plateau 2 and Des Moulins Phase 2 wind farms. Roncevaux is a collaboration between Invenergy, the Régie intermunicipale de l’énergie Gaspésie–Îles-de-la-Madeleine and Énergie Éolienne Bas-Saint-Laurent S.E.N.C.
