Community Power Investment Model (760 KB) Last updated July 31, 2009

Our objectives in writing the model are twofold:

  1. Support development of a community power program in Manitoba.
  2. Build a two-turbine, 3 megawatt, community-owned wind project in the Rural Municipality of Elton.

Our approach:

  1. Work collaboratively with communities throughout Manitoba to develop an appropriate Community Power Investment Model.
  2. Engage Manitoba Hydro and the Government of Manitoba in order to deploy a meaningful community power program in Manitoba.
