Wind Energy in Canada

Wind energy is made when naturally occurring wind turns turbines that provide power to electrical generators. The end result is a sustainable form of energy that can be applied to numerous industries in Canada. Electricity generated by Canadian wind energy is often used when it comes to pumping and milling.

Wind Energy Projects In Canada

The demand for wind energy in Canada has expanded in recent years. At the moment, it accounts for around 6% of Canada's electrical production, boasting a generating capacity of an estimated 12,816 megawatts (MW). The Canadian Wind Energy Association has put plans in place to more than double this over the next five years. As of December 2014, Canada had over 5,130 wind turbines operating on 225 wind farms across the country. As that number grows, Graybar Canada will be there, working on innovative ways to help producers scale up and meet the energy demands of their customers.

The use of wind energy in Ontario, Quebec and Alberta is especially common. In fact, Ontario is responsible for as much as 5,076 megawatts of the country's installed wind energy capacity, with Quebec contributing 3,882 MW and Alberta 1,483 MW in total.
