Update: Clean Power Call - List of Proposals

Posted on December 1, 2008 by Warren Brazier

Today, BC Hydro released the list of proposals it received to its Clean Power Call RFP.

BC Hydro reports that it received 68 proposals from 43 registered proponents.  A total of 71 entities had previously registered as proponents with BC Hydro in August. In aggregate the 68 proposals represent a total firm energy output of approximately 17,000 GWh/year from 45 hydro projects, 19 wind projects, 2 waste heat projects, 1 biogas project, and 1 biomass project. 

This marks the end of the beginning for many proponents as the long road to actually supplying this new electricity to the grid will take years to come to fruition. Kudos to the BC renewable energy industry for bidding into a very difficult call, in extraordinarily challenging financial markets. Now the hard work begins with EPA's to be negotiated and BCUC to be convinced of the merits of the call.
