Samsung and Pattern Energy have completed their South Kent wind project in the Chatham Kent region of Ontario (Canada). The 270 MW South Kent project is now the largest wind power facility in Canada and features 124 Siemens 2.3 MW wind turbines. The South Kent Wind project has a 20-year power purchase agreement with the Ontario Power Authority (OPA).
Samsung and Pattern Energy are also building the 150 MW Grand Renewable Energy Park in Haldimand County, Ontario. The partners are also making significant progress on two other wind energy projects in Ontario, including the 180 MW Armow Wind project in the Municipality of Kincardine and the 270 MW K2 Wind project in the Township of Ashfield-Colborne-Wawanosh, which began construction in March 2014 and is being developed with our partner Capital Power. Altogether, these four projects will create 870 MW of renewable energy for the OPA, enough to power approximately 300,000 homes in Ontario each year.
