October 2025: Update Submission Timeline to LT2 Window 2

ABO Energy has decided not to proceed with submitting the Timiskaming Wind Project into the IESO Long Term 2 (LT2) Window 1, which had a submission deadline of October 16th, 2025. Instead, ABO Energy will further strengthen our project by collecting additional wind data and advancing project development. In addition, we will continue to engage the public and First Nations to build trust, disseminate accurate information and receive feedback. Our intention will be to submit into LT2 Window 2, which is tentatively scheduled for Summer 2026. 

Open House on 7th August 2025

ABO Energy will be hosting an Open House on Thursday, August 7th at Riverside Place in New Liskeard, located at 55 Riverside Drive. The event will run from 6:00 pm to 8:30 pm and will have project experts in attendance to discuss topics and answer questions relating to:

  • Project Details
  • Wind Technology and Industry
  • Schedule
  • Environment
  • Regulatory Process
  • Consultation
  • Community Benefits

Please note that the Open House will not be in a ‘presentation’ format. Instead, attendees can walk around the room at their own pace and discuss topics of specific interest with project personnel. Refreshments will be provided.
