Aboriginal investment in run-of-river power projects
Ecotrust Canada is facilitating First Nation participation in renewable energy projects through a capital fund of $10 million, focusing on areas such as remote electrification and building power stations. Successful examples include the Taku River Tlingit and Hupacasath First Nation, which have developed their own power plants, leading to significant annual savings and potential income from energy production. The document outlines various opportunities for First Nations to financially engage in renewable energy, receive dividends, and negotiate stakes in independent power projects.
