Community
Relations:
InterWind believes that local communities surrounding its projects are the key foundation of successful development. We place great emphasis on community relations and cooperation with farmers, First Nations & Métis, landowners, local leaders, and other stakeholders. We work hard to ensure that all local requirements, preferences and expectations are not only met but exceeded.
Local support is crucial to the success of any project, and we truly appreciate the support that local communities have already demonstrated. InterWind is committed to helping Canada become a global environmental leader by developing our vast natural renewable energy resources and generating clean, renewable power.
