Gros-Morne II is a 111 MW wind power plant located in Canada, operated by Innergex Inc (38%) and TransCanada (42%). The facility harnesses wind energy to generate electricity and contributes to Canada's renewable energy portfolio. It is the 36th largest wind plant in Canada. With 111 MW, it represents 0.84% of Canada's total wind capacity of 13,283 MW. Canada has 275 wind plants with a combined capacity of 13,283 MW. Compared to the country's largest wind plant, Trillium Power Wind 1 at 400 MW, Gros-Morne II is nearly a third of its size. Wind energy plays a significant role in Canada's energy mix, contributing to the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions. The country's diverse geography, with vast open spaces and favorable wind conditions, supports the growth of wind energy projects. Gros-Morne II is located approximately 1,000 km northeast of Montreal in the eastern region of Canada.
