Sugar Maple Wind Energy Project
Logo Contest
About Project:
The Sugar Maple South Wind Energy Project is a proposed renewable energy facility with a total capacity of up to 112 MW. The project will consist of up to twenty-two turbines with a nameplate capacity between 5.9 to 7.2 MW.
The facility will be located on privately-held land in Pictou County, south of Marshy Hope near the Yellow Birch Wind Project. The project was awarded a PPA as part of the Nova Scotia Green Choice Program.
The project is being developed through a partnership with Glooscap Energy and SWEB Development LP (SWEB Energy), a North American subsidiary of W.E.B Group.
objective:
The primary goal of this logo design contest is to create a visually compelling logo that embodies the spirit of renewable energy and represents the project’s commitment to sustainability. The logo should capture the essence of wind energy, innovation, environmental stewardship, and a connection to indigenous culture and traditions.
This is the logo that won the contest for our Weaver Mountain Wind Project, created by Cruezer Meuse
