The Isle WindField

The Isle Wind Field is a community organization operating on Cape Breton Island, established to invest in wind turbines in the community. The corporation is governed by a community board of directors that manages local investments in projects that meet their community economic development.

We are currently working to attract more participation on the board by members of the community. If you are interested in getting involved in the development of wind energy as a Board member please contact us.
