This is how we're building RELATIONSHIPS.

Quality Wind & Halkirk Wind Projects

Two wind-energy facilities – the 142-MW Quality Wind project near Tumbler Ridge, BC, and the 150-MW Halkirk Wind project in Halkirk, AB, were commissioned in 2012.

Engaging stakeholders and working at maintaining strong relationships is an essential component of how we build and operate generation facilities.

The development and construction processes in these two communities culminated with two unique community events, where residents could put their name directly on a core components of wind power.

Celebrating together and thanking the community- Quality Wind and Halkirk Wind Blade-signing events

To demonstrate our appreciation to two small towns for their immense support of our wind-energy projects, we celebrated with blade signing events. We delivered massive wind turbine blades – nearly four school buses long –one to the community of Tumbler Ridge, BC and the other to the Halkirk, AB - and invited the community to sign them. The events included site tours, kids activities, safety demonstrations and, of course, lots of great food.

The unique “blade-signing” events were enjoyed by people of all ages. Attendance exceeded expectations, with approximately 1,000 attending the Quality Wind event and about 1,700 at the Halkirk event.
