Amit Virmani

Founder & CEO, Naveco Power

Amit and his team are leading the development of New Brunswick’s first locally owned wind farm, a $40 million project that will produce enough energy to power nearly 9,000 homes and reduce 47,937 tonnes of CO2. Being owned by the community it services, all environmental, economic, and community benefits stay in New Brunswick, including the creation of over 100 jobs during the construction phase and an additional 10 to maintain the turbines over the next 30 years. Naveco has also undertaken an office building retrofit in downtown Fredericton to renovate the historical building they reside in and reduce emissions from their office by 175 tonnes.
