VICTORIA — A northern British Columbia First Nation has signed an agreement with the province to work together on what Premier David Eby calls an"elegant" proposal for a clean energy hub on band territory north of Prince George.
The pact, also signed with the BC Energy Regulator, formerly the BC Oil and Gas Commission, sets up a framework to create low-carbon energy through several Indigenous owned and operated projects, starting with a hydrogen production facility. Collectively, the projects are worth approximately $7 billion and could create as many as 2,000 construction jobs and 500 permanent, full-time jobs.
He estimated construction could begin within 16 to 24 months and a statement from the province said it is working with the band and the BC Energy Regulator on a detailed plan to follow the memorandum and guide future work.
