Rivière du Moulin - 350 MW
|
|
|
The Rivière du Moulin wind project is located in the unorganized territory (UT) Lake Pikauba in the MRC de Charlevoix and the UT of Lake Ministuk in the MRC du Fjord du Saguenay . The wind project area is located entirely within public land.
This proposed 350 MW wind farm will be located in an undeveloped forest area and will therefore not be very visible by the public. The land area of the wind project is already crossed by many roads that can be used during construction.
Investments related to the proposed wind project are estimated at $800 million. During the construction phase, approximately 200 jobs will be created in the region. During the operation phase, about 20 permanent jobs will be created to ensure operation and maintenance of the project. Local and regional economic investments are estimated at over $100 million.
Development of the first tranche of 150 MW is expected to begin in 2013 for commissioning by 1 December 2014. The second tranche of 200 MW is expected to begin in 2014 for commissioning by 1 December 2015.
