Prairie Wind Boom: 28 GW National Target

⚠ This is a flightplan, not a commitment. Flightplans are hypothetical policy proposals modelled in the Ducklings causal simulation. They become projects only when voted into adoption through Consensus. Metrics shown reflect simulation model outputs, not real-world outcomes.

Overview

Canada targets 28 GW of wind capacity, with Saskatchewan leading the prairie expansion from 900 MW to 2500 MW. Driven by falling turbine costs and provincial renewable portfolio standards. Wind energy becomes Saskatchewan's post-oil economic anchor.

Ducklings Simulation

This proposal is active in the Ducklings causal simulation (Epoch 16). The simulation models downstream effects using a BFS cascade engine with strength-weighted, time-delayed edges capped at 3-hop depth and ±25% per-hop limits. Cascade outputs are bounded by variable saturation thresholds.
