Photo: Who took the panels?

The case of the missing solar panels. This section of plywood reveals where four 600-volt solar panels, worth about $800 each, were stolen this past Easter from the outside wall of Kuujjuaq’s new, state-of-the-art airport terminal. Jack Papak, director of the Kativik Regional Government’s transport department said if the panels are still within Nunavik, the thieves’ identities may become known if they attempt to hook up the panels over the course of the summer. The KRG now plans to extend the fence around the outside wall of the terminal building. (PHOTO BY JANE GEORGE)
