This is a list of operational wind farms in Canada with a capacity of at least 100 MW. The name of the wind farm is the name used by the energy company when referring to the farm.
The Centennial Wind Power Facility in Saskatchewan was the first wind farm in Canada to have a capacity of at least 100 MW upon completion in 2006.[1] Since then numerous other wind farms have surpassed the 100 MW threshold, most often through the expansion of existing wind farms. All but two of Canada's provinces or territories are home to at least one wind farm, those without being Nunavut and the Northwest Territories.
The 363.5 MW Seigneurie de Beaupré Wind Farms in Quebec has been the largest wind farm by installed capacity in Canada since it was last expanded in October 2015 from 340 MW to 363.5 MW. The previous record-holder was the 350 MW Rivière-du-Moulin Wind Project in Quebec from its opening in December 2014 to September 2015.
