Environmental Review of the Royal Windsor Energy Centre Notice of Commencement and Public Open House Notice of Commencement Northland Power Inc. (Northland Power), an industry leading independent power producer in Ontario, is proposing to construct a nominal 850 MW combinedcycle natural gas-fuelled electricity generating station known as the Royal Windsor Energy Centre (the Project) on a site located on Royal Windsor Drive in Mississauga (see map). Power generated from the station is planned to be delivered to the Ontario electricity grid via a short transmission line connecting to Hydro One's 230 kV line. The project is being developed to respond to the need for electrical generating capacity in Southwest GTA as identified by the Ontario Power Authority (OPA). The Project is subject to the Ontario Environmental Assessment Act (the Act) and Regulation 116/01. Under this Act and its supporting regulations, the Project will be subject to an environmental review that will require examining the project's potential effects on the environment including land, air, water, and noise; developing suitable measures to mitigate potential effects; and, extensive consultations with potentially affected stakeholders. Northland Power is committed to consulting and working with the public and stakeholder groups throughout the development of the Project. The consultation process will seek public and stakeholder input regarding local environmental and socio-economic conditions, facility design, project benefits and mitigation/management plans. Public Open House Northland Power is hosting a Public Open House to introduce the Project and provide information about the Environmental Review and OPA processes. Representatives of Northland Power and Golder Associates will be in attendance to discuss the Project and answer your questions.
