Everwind NS Holdings and Membertou Development Corporation have registered the proposed Harbour Hills Wind Project in Guysborough County for Environmental Assessment.
In its filings with the province’s Environmental Assessment Branch, the two companies say they intend to operate wind farm with up to 107 turbines, capable of generating up to 856 megawatts of renewable electricity near the communities of Port Bickerton, Country Harbour Mines, Melrose and Indian Harbour Lake.
Each wind turbine would have a height of about 221.7 metres to the tip of the blade and produce about 8 megawatts. Construction would begin in 2030 and operate for about 35 years.
Written comments will be accepted up to August 3rd at the Environmental Assessment Branch.
