First Nations enter into energy agreement with SaskPower
The province has entered into agreements with two First Nations who will provide renewable energy to Regina and Weyburn.
Pesâkâstêw Solar, a partnership between George Gordon First Nation, Star Blanket Cree Nation and Natural Forces, will develop, own and operate the 10 MW solar project near Weyburn.
“After a lot of hard work from our business arm, George Gordon Developments Limited, we are confident our Pesâkâstêw Solar Project will create employment and revenue generation opportunities for our First Nations members,” said George Gordon First Nation Chief Byron Bitternose.
