The Seigneurie de Beaupré Wind Farms, also known as just the Seigneurie de Beaupré, is a wind farm complex located in the La Côte-de-Beaupré Regional County Municipality of Quebec, Canada. The original "Seigneurie 2 & 3" wind farm was developed by Boralex and Gaz Métro in 2013.^[1]

Description

Seigneurie de Beaupré is composed of three adjacent wind farms that operate as single unit. Wind farms 2, 3, and 4 are under the co-ownership of Boralex and Gaz Métro while the "Côte-de-Beaupré" wind farm is co-owned by Boralex and the La Côte-de-Beaupré Regional County Municipality. The wind farm complex has undergone multiple expansions, the most recent being the 23.5 MW Phase III expansion completed in 2015.

Wind farm "SBx", a proposed expansion of the Seigneurie de Beaupré wind farm complex, would increase its installed capacity by another 300 MW to 663.5 MW.^[2]
