Wind Facts
Wind Energy for Everyone.
Canada can produce wind energy for everyone, from a small
home turbine to a utility grid.
Large-scale wind generation provides power to your local
utility grid, just like other conventional forms of generation
like coal, nuclear, hydro or natural gas. When they are clustered
together in a wind farm, turbines
can even produce power for thousands of distant homes and
businesses.
Small-scale wind turbines can provide on-site power to a
home, farm or business. Any additional electricity that is
generated beyond the user’s needs can be fed into the
local electrical grid. For more information on small-scale
wind generation visit our section on Small-scale Wind Energy.
