ACCIONA Energía has announced that its new Forty Mile Wind Farm in southern Alberta has started to send renewable electricity to the province’s power grid.
The project is located about 50 km southwest of Medicine Hat, Alberta. Its 49 Nordex turbines will have a total generating capacity of 280 MW. The project is ACCIONA Energía’s fifth wind farm in Canada and, once complete, will bring the company’s total installed capacity in North America to more than 3.0 GWs. The project, which remains on track for completion in Q1 of 2025, will generate enough clean energy to power more than 85,000 homes.
