The two hydropower plants are thr 27MW Trio Creek and 23MW Bremner Creek, which have a combined expected energy output of approximately 150GWh per year. The two projects are expected to offset nearly 100 tonnes of carbon each year, which is equivalent of more than 52,000 kilograms of burned coal.

Additionally, a debt financing of C$197m ($147m) has been secured for the construction of the projects with equity partners, Greengen Holdings and Sts’ailes Energy Development.

CC&L Infrastructure president Matt O’Brien said: “CC&L Infrastructure is pleased to complete this transaction and financing.
