BC Hydro energy shortage NW BC
BC Hydro energy shortage NW BCThe forecasted significant load growth in the northwest area, related to both Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) and other industrial developments such as mines, is expected to exceed the existing 800 megawatts (MW) capability of the radial 500 kV transmission line in 2019 when the proposed LNG Canada plant is expected to begin. To supply loads in excess of 800 MW, BC Hydro must provide incremental transmission capacity, additional local electricity generating facilities or a combination of both.
