About the project
PHP Wind is building a wind project, known as the Goose Harbour Lake Wind Farm Project, which will be located on lands in Guysborough County that are currently under license to Port Hawkesbury Paper for approved sustainable forest management.
This project represents another step towards securing the long-term viability of one of the largest industrial employers in Nova Scotia. The Goose Harbour Lake Wind Farm Project will contribute to the environmental, economic and social objectives of Port Hawkesbury Paper facility’s operations, as the project will reduce the carbon footprint of the provincial power supply and corresponding greenhouse gas emissions.
Environmental Considerations
In compliance with the Province of Nova Scotia’s rigorous Environmental Assessment and Approval Process, Goose Harbour Lake Wind Farm and its environmental experts, Strum Consulting, have completed and continue to undertake a number of detailed studies.
