HOUSTON, Oct. 6 -- A joint venture of Suncor Energy Inc., Enbridge Inc., and EHN Wind Power Canada Inc.—a unit of Corporacion Energia Hidroeléctrica de Navarra SA of Spain—has submitted to the Ontario government a proposal to build a 75 Mw wind-power project near Ripley, Ont.

The JV would install wind turbines east of Lake Huron in Huron-Kinloss Township and connect them to the provincial power grid.

The JV submitted the proposal in response to Ontario's request for projects to help the province produce 5% of Ontario's electric power from renewable sources by 2007.
