BA4 Wind GP Corp. (“BA4 Wind”), applied pursuant to s 3 of the Fair, Efficient and Open Competition Regulation (“FEOCR”), seeking permission to share records not available to the public regarding the Buffalo Atlee Wind Farm 4 consisting of two wind turbines with a total generating capability of 10.4 megawatts (“MW”) and related equipment. BA4 Wind applied to share records between BA4 Wind, BA4 Wind LP and URICA Energy Real Time Ltd.
Decision

The AUC was also satisfied that the total offer control of the parties would not exceed the offer control limit of 30 percent under s 5(5) of the FEOCR. The AUC approved the application.
