Feedback deadline for GNWT Energy Strategy coming quick

If you are looking to give your feedback on the Draft 2030 Energy Strategy, your time is running out.

The Government of the Northwest Territories Energy Strategy is a long term plan for correcting energy supply and use.

The main goal has been switching from expensive fossil fuels used for heating homes and creating electricity. The GNWT wants to transition to a more environmentally friendly option that also provides a less expensive cost of living. This includes the potential for the development of hydroelectric power and transmission lines, and develop wind and solar energies to replace diesel.

The deadline for feedback is on January 3rd, 2018.
