Greengate's first project, the 150 megawatt (MW) Halkirk I Wind Project, was completed in 2012.[2] It was central Alberta's first wind project, first wind project approved by the Alberta Utilities Commission (AUC) and, at the time of construction, the province's largest wind project, located in the County of Paintearth, 40 kilometres (25 mi) east of Stettler.[2] The project was sold to its joint venture partner Capital Power corporation.[3]
