Strategy: Planning and Research
Description: Beginning with a strategic planning session in 2007, the Stellat'en First Nation community has selected Wind Energy as a top economic development priority. Stellat'en First Nation wishes to complete a detailed wind resource evaluation to determine whether a wind energy operation might be feasible in the area. The resource assessment will be contracted to a technical expert in wind analysis. This project includes five steps to complete an analysis of the wind resource on the Stellat'en First Nation territory and a scoping study of financing and partnership models for project development. The Stellat'en First Nation will work with The Pembina Institute to implement the project. This project is funded in partnership by NKDF, Stellat'en First Nation, and Indigenous and Northern Affairs Canada (INAC).
