The wind farm has been developed by Renewable Energy Systems Canada, Inc., and once completed in the first quarter of 2025, “Forty Mile” with a capacity of approx. 280 MW will be ACCIONA Energía’s largest wind farm in North America. All turbines will be cold climate versions and will be delivered with a rated capacity of 5.7 MW and operated on 108-meter steel towers.

Canada has adopted ambitious climate change targets, and by the end of 2022, the country was ranked 8th in the world for installed wind capacity. The Canadian Renewable Energy Association also forecasts the addition of more than 5GW of wind in the short term (2023-5).
