Management theorist W. Edwards Deming famously said, “In God we trust. All others must bring data.” I created this database to provide reliable data on the rejections or restrictions of battery, solar, and wind projects that have occurred around the world over the past two decades. If you are aware of a rejection or restriction that's not in the database, please click the Contribute button and complete the form. Please include a working URL to the relevant article or government entity so I can verify the information. If it checks out, I will add it to the database. Thanks.

| 3/6/2024 | CA | East Zorra-Tavistock Council | Ontario | wind | A wind farm project proposed for the Cassel and Innerkip areas of East Zorra-Tavistock ended before it began Wednesday after East Zorra-Tavistock council declared the township an “unwilling host.” The unanimous decision was met with loud cheers from most of the standing room-only crowd, who had gathered in council chambers to hear presentations from Helmut Schneider, Prowind Canada’s vice-president of renewable energy, and David Cunningham, a local farmer who represented Wind Concerns EZT, a grassroots citizens’ group. | Link |
