Wind power for the Arctic?
I just read that you area consumes 40 million liters of diesel per year.
May I recommend looking at wind power technology. It has come a long way in the last decade. One would think that people living in the “garden of eden” would want to use a power source that would leave no traces of use, such as toxic byproducts such as air pollution.
I visited (drove to) Radisson this past winter and was extremely impressed with the James Bay Territory. Good luck and I hope your area will be implementing wind power in the near future.
This would also allow Quebec Hydro to stop its plans to divert the Rupert River and other ridiculous projects in the James Bay Territory — the grid is there — perhaps in the future your area might attach windmills instead of diverting rivers for almost free power production.
