Qulliq Energy should look into solar power

By NUNATSIAQ NEWS

The Nunavut Power Corp. and Qulliq Energy Corp. have been in the news for some time now, and at times the power corporation is cheered.

What seems to be missing is that no one seems to be looking at solar power. Maybe it’s too expensive.

Iqaluit has quite a bit of sun year-round and with that plant on the hill, perhaps the corporation could use solar panels in its building, since Iqaluit has 24 hours of sun in spring time.

If the QEC could install solar panels in its building, perhaps that might do away with the fuel stabilizer rider and we might have more energy to spare in Iqaluit. Just a thought.
