[edit]

Can someone merge those two tables beside eachother?

I can't find anywhere on The Ontario Sustainable Energy Association that the installed capacity is 2000 MW. Is there a more specific reference we can include? It would also be helpful to know the source of the remaining information in the first few lines. Thanks, Tprentice (talk) 20:03, 26 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Nevermind, I found a better source, and changed the capacity to 1856 MW. Tprentice (talk) 20:31, 26 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Installed capacity tables

[edit]

Does anyone know where the data for the wind power from each province comes from? Right now it doesn't give a date or a reference or anything. The canwea site gives the numbers that were there before, but again no date. Ideally something by statscan would be good, but I've looked and can't find anything.

Bad Numbers

[edit]

According to one of the linked sources, http://www.canwea.ca/farms/index_e.php, Canada has a total installed capacity of 4,285 MW, 2% of total demand, making the numbers in this article incorrect (possibly outdated). —Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.249.74.84 (talk) 20:00, 17 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

2015 Expected Capacity

[edit]

Where do those expected numbers come from? It seems suspicious that Alberta plans to increase its wind generation almost 9 fold in 3 years. TastyCakes (talk) 17:56, 30 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I can't find any source for those 2015 figures and think they should be removed. Johnfos (talk) 03:20, 31 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Public Opinion

[edit]

The paragraph about public opinion seems to go mislead the reader to believing a majority of Ontarians are using "propane and the burning of wood". Should this be rephrased or completely rewritten? Tiffdmo14 (talk) 04:47, 19 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Wind Power Output Numbers

[edit]

I got into a twit off today and the guy who goes by the name "Kremlin puppet" @CoachK58501144 claimed that wind power output in Saskatchewan Canada had fallen to 3MW of a total capacity of 3076MW the other night and linked to this article: https://pipelineonline.ca/albertas-now-32-wind-farms-with-3076-megawatts-capacity-put-out-just-15-megawatts-at-supper-on-tuesday-and-3-megawatts-at-midnight/ Is this data for real? I can find virtually no other sites who link to this site and no other sites giving out this kind of information. Maybe I just don't want to believe its true cause I am big on stopping climate change but with a name like Kremlin puppet it makes me wonder if he is in fact a Russian disinfo agent keen on getting the fossil fuels flowing to the world again. 2601:181:4680:7B80:1C2F:2FFB:8B62:2F5E (talk) 00:47, 10 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
