Everwind Bear Lake, Windy Ridge, Kmtnuk, & Upper Afton will provide up to 768 MW
Data Centre use 420KW so 348KW excess. Then there is WindWest, 300+ MW of large-scale solar, 300–400 MW of battery storage, and a new 500+ MW NS-NB reliability transmission tie online by 2028–2029.

The #SpringEconomicUpdate includes a $6B ‘Team Canada Strong’ investment to hire up to 100k trades workers — key in implementing major projects like #WindWest & a #NationalElectricityGrid.

I asked Senator Moreau how this will support projects that reduce greenhouse gas emissions & grow the economy.

Wind West is not a grift.

It’s a rare, ambitious, long-term infrastructure opportunity. Don’t let smug columnists poison the well because they don’t know what an HVDC backbone is.

Critique with knowledge, not ego.

4/12 Nova Scotia's Wind West plan is breathtakingly ambitious: thousands of offshore turbines generating enough electricity to supply 25% of Canada's total needs.

Scott Urquhart calls the wind off Nova Scotia "pretty much best in the world."
