GE wind turbines have been selected to power nine new wind projects in the province of Ontario, Canada, adding approximately 650MW of clean energy to the province’s electricity grid.
When the projects are fully built out by 2015, GE wind turbines will be delivering approximately 1,200MW of wind energy in Ontario. To date GE has announced more than US$ 150 million of investments in Ontario, creating three global centers of excellence: Peterborough Motors; Grid IQ Innovation Centre in Markham; and Pathology Innovation Centre of Excellence in Toronto. GE also is working with a number of Ontario-based businesses that are providing products and services supporting wind farm projects and stimulating new local job creation in multiple regions of Ontario.
