200 megawatt Bekevar Wind Energy Facility joins Saskatchewan grid, produces less than a phone charger on opening day

That evening, Alberta’s 48 wind farms totaling a theoretical maximum output of 5,340 megawatt produced between 0 and five megawatts for at least three hours, from 8:44 p.m. until midnight. For most, if not all, of that first hour, wind output in Alberta was a big fat zero, just as it was at Bekevar in the late afternoon.
