EDF EN CANADAMORE THAN $3 BILLION INVESTED – WITH ANOTHER POSSIBLE $1.8 BILLION FOR BC PEACE
EDF EN Canada contracted Avro Wind Energy to help develop wind projects in BC Peace River Region. Avro has carried interest in the projects.
OVERVIEW – SUNDANCE WIND PROJECT
Generation capacity up to 250 MW
Potential investment of more than $600 Million
Jobs:
Approximately 250 during construction
Approximately 10 – 15 during operations
Build and Permitting Schedule:
Build early as 2016 subject to Power Purchase Agreement with BC Hydro.
EA Certificate expected in 2015
First open house – June 2013
Supportive engagement with Treaty 8 First Nations
Project located on Crown land, approximately 20km north of Tumbler Ridge.
Near D-CAT transmission, proposed Site C dam, and ramping gas electrical load
ON-GOING & UPCOMING ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT ACTIVITIES
• First Nations, Public & Stakeholder Consultation• BC Environmental Assessment process – submission for
Application review expected in early 2015• Analysis of local features
On-going Activities
• Fall Bat surveys• Reporting on results of field studies, including Archaeological
Resources, Furbearers, Ungulates (including Caribou), Bears, Fish and Fish Habitat, Vegetation and Ecosystems, Amphibians and Reptiles, Bats, Birds, Terrestrial Invertebrates, Community Infrastructure, Visual Resources, Land and Land Use, Communication Systems, Human Health, Terrain Stability, and Hydrology

HOW CAN YOU HELP – AND BENEFIT?
Help us deliver message to BC Government and BC Hydro: Tumbler Ridge and Chetwynd are endowed with “world class” wind energy
resource.
Let BC Government and BC Hydro know the world’s leading renewable power developers, owners and operators (like EDF EN Canada) are here already:
Making regional investments near Tumbler Ridge and Chetwynd; and Developing low cost power with social license for the benefit of all British
Columbians
Three Peace Region EDF EN Canada wind projects can build as early as 2016. Potential for near term $1.8 Billion regional investment.
Opportunities for local construction contracts and long term careers in operations and maintenance.
