Lanfine Wind Project
4629-5261
Electrical energy generated from wind is renewable and is considered clean as there are no direct emissions created in the transformation of the kinetic energy of the wind into electrical energy. There are emissions associated with the operation of a wind powered facility such as the combustion of natural gas for heating service buildings, indirect emissions from electricity used to power service buildings, and combustion of fuel for maintenance vehicles, etc. which are small in comparison to the output of the wind energy generation facility. Wind-powered electricity has a very low overall emissions intensity. In comparison, most electricity generated in the Alberta grid is through the combustion of nonrenewable fossil fuel-based sources such as coal, resulting in a high overall emissions intensity. Electricity generated by the wind facility displaces gid electricity. Therefore, the baseline condition for this project is the emissions that would have been emitted from the generation of an equivalent amount of electricity from fossil fuel-based sources. GHG emission reductions and removals are calculated using the Quantification Protocol for Wind-Powered Electricity Generation, (Version 1.0, March 2008). The Project will include 35 Vestas V150 turbines with a capacity of 4.3 MW each and associated infrastructure, such as collector lines, new access, road upgrades and a substation. Furthermore, all collector lines will be installed underground. The electricity generated from the Project is estimated to be approximately 150.5 megawatt (MW). The expected lifetime of the Project is 25 years.
