The potential for wind power as a component of Community Power in Ontario is high. According to the IESO (Independent Electricity System Operator) Ontario is well-positioned for considerable growth in wind generation with a good selection of sites across the province. The implementation of the Green Energy and Green Economy Act, 2009 is expected to accelerate the expansion of wind generation even further.
