Forty Mile will create up to 250 jobs during the peak construction phase and up to 25 permanent jobs once operational. ACCIONA and RES will work closely with stakeholders, including local governmental agencies and landowners to ensure a smooth development and to maximize the positive impacts of the project on the community.
The project falls under ACCIONA's Social Impact Management program, which re-invests a portion of its annual revenue to support education, wellness, and environmental stewardship programs in the communities where it operates.
ACCIONA already owns and operates four wind farms in Canada, totaling more than 180MW of wind capacity. The construction of this project expands the company’s footprint in North America and continues advancing in its commitment to growth and geographic diversification plans.
