7/15/2015
The Timiskaming First Nation (TFN) and wpd Canada, a Mississauga-based green energy company, are partnering on a proposed $300 to $350-million wind energy development project.
The proposed 120-megawatt Silver Centre Wind Project is slated for the Lorraine Valley, an unorganized township south of Cobalt. It would be located east of Highway 567 near the shores of Lake Timiskaming.
A feasibility study was received by the province’s Independent Electricity Systems Operator earlier this year. A public meeting on the project was held in Cobalt in late June.
