Exactly. BC Hydro's transmission line has finite capacity to the NW of BC. Additional power must be provided locally or via a multi-billion dollar transmission line which would take up to a decade to approve and complete. Providing local power is the most practical and cost effective alternative. BC Hydro power would still be there acting as a backstop.

Yes, would require Alaska hydro to act as a backstop for the NW region. If BC Hydro's line has limited capacity and the wind slows down, it has to be able to keep all the power on. If not, then Alaska also has to help out for those times. I look at the region 50 years from today, there will be more industries requiring electricity.

Who is the 3rd party that will built and own the transmission line from BC Hydro's Skeena (or Nass Valley) substation to Lsi Kisims LNG? If it's not BC Hydro, nor a part of the LNG project itself? Interesting.

I guess they probably mean BC Transmission Corp (Crown Corp) as the 3rd Party.

But BC Transmission Corp was consolidated into BC Hydro. So back to who is the 3rd party? Nowdays who knows. Warren Buffet? He already owns almost all transmission lines in Alberta. But that's his business success, " toll-bridge businesses". It can be a pipeline, transmission lines, railroads, etc.
