Nexen Inc. and Canadian Hydro Developers Inc. own 50% respectively of the Soderglen Wind Powered Electricity Generation project. Canadian Hydro Developers Inc. is the operator. The plant includes47 wind turbines of 1.5 MWe capacity for a total of 70.5 MWe.
The project was commissioned in September, 2006.
The opportunity for generating carbon offsets from this project arises from the quantification of reductions in greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions resulting from the generation of electricity by wind thus offsetting the generation of this electricity by fossil fuel sources.
