Project Overview
Finavera Renewables is focusing its initial efforts in British Columbia on the Peace Region. The wind resource in this area is strong, and the potential for wind power projects is substantial. Several project sites are being developed simultaneously, with the permitting and planning process ongoing. Finavera Renewables is focusing several projects for inclusion in the 2007 BC Hydro call for power.
