Why:

Canada, and in particular Ontario, has emerged as a competitive and leading destination for wind energy investment globally. This industry now represents billions of dollars in new investments across the manufacturing and construction sectors annually in Canada. Today, wind energy continues to play a significant and growing role in delivering clean, safe and affordable energy as provinces look to build more robust electricity systems. Maintaining this momentum will require continued commitments to long-term, aggressive targets for wind energy development and a stable policy framework, along with responsible and sustainable industry practices.

CanWEA is the voice of Canada’s wind energy industry, actively promoting the responsible and sustainable growth of wind energy on behalf of its members. A national non-profit association, CanWEA serves as Canada’s leading source of credible information about wind energy and its social, economic and environmental benefits.
