Canadian Wind Energy Association
The Canadian Wind Energy Association (CanWEA) is a non-profit trade association that promotes the appropriate development and application of all aspects of wind energy in Canada, including the creation of a suitable policy environment.
Global renewables giant EDPR may sue the Canadian province of Ontario after its government withdrew consent for an almost-completed 100MW wind farm.
The Portugal-based group said it was “wholly perplexed” by the decision to revoke approval for the Nation Rise wind farm 40km southeast of Ottawa, a decision apparently prompted by protests over impacts on bat populations.
On July 1, 2020, CanWEA and the Canadian Solar Industries Association (CanSIA) united within the Canadian Renewable Energy Association to form one voice for wind energy, solar energy and energy storage in Canada.
