Armow Wind

Municipality of Kincardine, Ontario, Canada

Located near the shores of Lake Huron, the Armow Wind facility uses Ontario-made turbines to generate economic benefits for the region.

01 /
  • With turbine blades made in Tillsonburg, Ontario, and towers built in Windsor, the site’s 91 Siemens Gamesa 2.3 MW wind turbines allow local farmers to harvest a different kind of crop.

  • The facility expects to produce an estimated $10 million in taxes over 20 years, benefiting Bruce County, the Municipality of Kincardine, and the Bluewater District School Board. Armow Wind also contributed $1 million for improvements at the Kincardine Airport.

Armow Wind’s Community Benefits Program includes nearly $13 million donated over 20 years into a Community Benefit Reserve Fund administered by the Municipality. The Fund supports community infrastructure, services, education, recreation, and land stewardship, among other causes.

We place great importance on being an active part of the local communities where we have a presence.

Please let us know if your group would like a presentation or if you have suggestions for community sponsorships and local causes we can support.

Electricity produced by the 180 MW facility is equal to the annual needs of ~170,000 Ontarians and sold to the Independent Electricity System Operator under a 20-year power purchase agreement.

Ontario committed to phasing out coal-fired generation in 2002 and wind energy development helped the province meet that goal in 2014. Today, wind turbines harness the wind across the province to generate homegrown energy without harmful emissions.

Armow Wind is a joint venture between Pattern Canada and Samsung Renewable Energy.
