First Nation Power Projects

We help First Nation partners engage in creating renewable energy projects, both solar and wind energy.  Our value-add is in transferring technical skills and guiding our partners to become successful energy project developers.  Community support is essential for successful project development and we work hard to ensure that our clients' projects provide meaningful economic benefits to the community and are aligned with community values.

At 3G Energy we use the sophisticated energy-yield software to model the performance characteristics of a wide variety of wind energy and solar energy equipment and then we design projects for First Nations that optimize site specific energy resources, financial resources,  and the land configuration.  

M'Chigeeng Wind Energy Project

This 4MW Commercial wind project is now, as of April 2011, under construction and completion is scheduled for November 2011.  If completed on schedule it will be an historic first wind energy project owned by a First Nation in Ontario.

Our services include:

  • Government Grants and Financial Assistance Applications (e.g. INAC, FEDNOR; Aboriginal Loan Guarantee Program, Aboriginal Energy Partnerships Program);
  • Site Selection;
  • Arranging Wind & Solar Energy Resource Assessment (arranged through our engineer);
  • Project Design;
  • Community Energy Plans;
  • Community outreach and training;
  • Environmental Permitting and Regulatory Compliance;
  • Project Finance;
  • Equipment Procurement;
  • Operations and management.

 

Note:   3G Energy Corp does not perform engineering services as defined under the Engineers Act of Ontario and therefore we do not carry professional liability insurance for those services.  We do arrange for those services through our engineer who is appropriately licensed and insured for engineering work in Ontario.  Such services are invoiced directly by our engineer.
