Speaker: Glen Estill
Glen Estill is President and CEO of his business Sky Generation Inc.
Glen began researching the wind business in July 2000, by attending
the conferences of the Canadian and American Wind Energy Associations
(CanWEA and AWEA), and by traveling to Denmark to talk to wind turbine
owners and manufacturers. Sky Generation erected a 1.8 MW wind turbine
on the Bruce Peninsula in November of 2002. The project will be expanded
to 3 turbines in late 2006. Glen was an active participant on the Ontario
Wind Power Task Force, which made a series of policy recommendations
to the Provincial Government. Glen is the past President of CanWEA,
and an active member of the CanWEA Ontario caucus, and government relations
committee. He was co-founder of EMJ Data Systems Ltd. a computer wholesaler
that went public on the TSE in 1994. Glen also serves on the Board of
a large wind developer, Ventus Energy (http://www.ventusenergy.ca/)
Wind Vision
- Wind
is the world's fastest growing source of electricity, with a 5 year
compound annual growth rate over 30%. This increase in the number of
turbines manufactured is driving costs down, as manufacturers go down
their learning curve, and achieve economies of scale. In the future,
wind power will be even more competitive with coal and gas fired plants.
