As the Yukon’s largest provider of renewable energy, Yukon Energy’s mandate is to ensure we provide Yukoners with a secure supply of clean, and preferably renewable energy. This challenge is made more difficult by the fact that the Yukon is not connected to other transmission grids like British Columbia, Alberta or Alaska, so we must find ways to be self-sufficient in our ability to supply electricity to customers.
There have been numerous chances for members of the public to give input on the Mayo B proposal, both through public meetings and through the environmental assessment process. There is another chance coming up shortly, when the Yukon Utilities Board reviews the proposal. The Board has just received our application, which you can find on our web site. More information about Mayo B is available here.
Watch this blog and local media outlets for information about upcoming public hearings, and about how you can voice your views about the potential project.
