PEI Energy Corporation Dept: The province said that the $60-million project will help it meet its Energy Accord commitments, a five-year power purchase agreement between Maritime Electric and NB Power made in 2010 , according to CBC. Julie Shore, owner of Prince Edward Distillery, feels the community is against it and the PEI Energy Corporation is moving forward with plans for a 10-turbine wind development in the Hermanville and Clear Springs area, which will produce 30 megawatts of power. The province has also said that most of the local community supports the project. Community members have publicly demonstrated both support and opposition for the project. (www.immigrantscanada.com).
