Cartier Wind Energy completes 211.5MW Gros-Morne wind farm in Canada.

Cartier Wind Energy, a joint venture of Innergex Renewable Energy and TransCanada, has completed Canada's largest wind farm.

The Gros-Morne project, located in Québec, is powered by 141 GE turbines. The 211.5MW wind farm has the potential to generate enough renewable energy to power 20,000 homes in the province. This power will be sold to Hydro-Quebec under a 20-year contract. GE will provide operations and maintenance services for the wind farm over four years.

These renewable energy projects were awarded as part of Hydro-Québec's 2004 request for proposals (RFP) to provide 1,000MW of new wind power capacity to the province by 2012.
