Massive energy needs being predicted to fuel green economy
Northwest First Nations are lining up to buy into electricity transmission lines and other energy production related projects in the region.
Buying into the line would fit with a mandate given to BC Hydro by the provincial government to involve First Nations in the ownership and construction of new transmission lines. Both LNG projects have already incorporated hydroelectric power into their concept of being part of the low-carbon emitting economy.
Sam said construction of power lines from Prince George to Terrace, from Terrace to Kitimat, from Terrace to Prince Rupert and from Terrace to the Nass Valley is conservatively estimated to cost $8 billion.
