China Longyuan Power Group Corp. (0916.HK), the country's largest producer of wind-generated electricity, will invest and operate a wind power project near Canada's Toronto city, the company's president said Thursday.

In addition to the 100-megawatt project in
Canada , Longyuan is also in discussions to invest in a wind farm in South Africa and an agreement is expected this year, Xie Changjun said on the sidelines of an industry conference.

The company aims to secure 200-300 megawatts of overseas wind projects this year to leverage on favorable power tariffs and government subsidies, he said.
