013-3835 New Regulation to close White Pines Wind Project
The White Pines is a project to build nine (9) wind turbines in Prince Edward County. The Proponent, WPD, has spent $100 million and nearly 10 years following Ontario’s process to establish the business. Today four (4) turbines are complete.
There will be significant cost to cancel this project, and Ontario taxpayers and residents have already paid a big price: money spent, wildlife habitat lost, ground and water impacted with no gain realized. It makes no economic sense to stop the project today thereby sacrificing all for naught.
Once live these wind turbines will provide enough energy to power over 3,000 homes annually.
The cost/benefit analysis says let’s see this project through to completion.
