The contract also includes a five-year service and maintenance agreement, along with delivery and commissioning of the turbines.

The projects will be built under Ontario’s feed-in tariff programme.

Vestas-Canadian Wind Technology president Martha Wyrsch said, "We look forward to bringing more clean energy to the grid. These projects will provide construction and maintenance jobs in Ontario and even more clean energy to the region. The V90-1.8MW, which is designed for areas with medium wind speeds, will provide enough electricity to power 60,000 Ontario homes."
