On April 6 EPCOR welcomed Ontario Minister of Energy Donna Cansfield to celebrate the start-up of operations at its Kingsbridge I Wind Power Project.
The project is now complete, ahead of its June 30 deadline, with all 22 turbines in the 40MW project generating electricity to Ontario's electrical grid. Kingsbridge I will be followed by Kingsbridge II. In November 2005, EPCOR entered into a Power Purchase Agreement for the sale of power from the 160MW Kingsbridge II Wind Power Project with the Ontario Power Authority. Pending regulatory and other approvals, Kingsbridge II is expected to consist of 69 wind turbines and will be constructed north of Kingsbridge I in the township of Ashfield-Colborne-Wawanosh.
