Brookfield Renewable Power is proposing to develop the Gosfield-Comber Wind Energy Project in the Municipalities of Lakeshore and Kingsville in the County of Essex, Ontario. The proposed project will generate up to 250 megawatts (MW) of safe and pollution-free renewable energy - enough electricity to power approximately 80,000 homes.

Did you know?
Birds
After extensive studies, BioLogic (aquatic and terrestrial ecosystem planners) and Stantec concluded:
given the scarcity of birds, the minimum 8 km distance between the proposed turbines, known staging and stopover habitat, turbines in the study area are not expected to interfere with migrants' ascent and descent. Therefore,
no significant direct mortality to migrants is anticipated.
Sound Emission
Regarding turbine sound emissions, a baseline ambient noise survey was conducted within the project study area to substantiate the provincial regulatory sound level limit requirements for the project.
Increased, reliable income to leaseholders who accommodate turbines.
