Construction Starts on 196-MW Saint-Paul-de-Montminy Wind Farm in Québec

Kruger Energy has begun construction of the 196-MW Saint-Paul-de-Montminy (SPDM) wind farm with Alliance de l’énergie de l’Est and Potentia Renewables in Québec, Canada.

The project is expected to be commissioned by December 2027. Situated across the municipalities of Saint-Paul-de-Montminy, Notre-Dame-du-Rosaire, and Sainte-Apolline-de-Patton, it involves an investment exceeding CA$580 million (US$424 million). Developed in collaboration with the Alliance de l’énergie de l’Est and Potentia Renewables Inc., the SPDM Wind Farm has moved into the construction stage after securing all necessary approvals. Initial site activities are currently in progress, including land clearing, marking of construction areas, and early work on the planned collector system and transmission infrastructure.

With more than two decades of experience in wind power development, Kruger Energy continues to grow its portfolio through large-scale projects that advance the energy transition while supporting local communities. The addition of the SPDM project brings the company’s total investment in wind energy across Canada to approximately CA$1.5 billion. In Québec, the company operates the Montérégie Wind Farm (101.2 MW), commissioned in 2012, as well as the Des Cultures Wind Farm (24 MW), which began operations in 2022 and was developed in partnership with the Mohawk community of Kahnawà:ke. Beyond Québec, Kruger Energy also manages two wind farms in Ontario, commissioned between 2008 and 2011, with a combined installed capacity exceeding 200 MW.
