Municipality of Chatham-Kent, Ontario, Canada
South Kent Wind is Pattern Energy and Samsung Renewable Energy’s first joint venture project. It is one of the largest wind facilities in Ontario, producing electricity equal to the needs of nearly 250,000 Ontarians every year.
The Chatham Kent Community Foundation accepts grant applications for the SKW Community Fund on their website. Funds are distributed to qualifying non-profit organizations and support capital, operating, and special one-time costs for facilities, programs, and events. A committee of seven members from the community evaluate applications bi-annually.
The 270 MW South Kent Wind facility entails 124 Ontario-made 2.3 MW wind turbines with Siemens blades manufactured in Tillsonburg and CS Wind towers built in Windsor using steel from the province.
South Kent Wind had more than 500 workers on-site during peak construction activity, with 99% of the workforce from Ontario. With the help of local contractors, 15 team members operate and maintain the facility.
