“Windstream Wolfe Island Shoals” has signed a deal with Siemens Canada.

The deal is to supply up to 130 turbines for an offshore wind power project located between 5 to 16 kilometres off the southwest shore of Wolf Island in eastern Lake Ontario.

The project will create over 1,900 jobs for the first 5 years and nearly 200 after construction.

The turbine blades will be made at the Siemens plant in Tillsonburg.
