The federal government has invested $25 million in the Northwest Territories for the Taltson Hydro Expansion Project.
This funding will be provided through the federal government’s Critical Minerals Infrastructure Fund (CMIF).
The government plans to complete pre-construction for the project to build a new 60-megawatt generation facility near the existing facility and a 230-kilovolt transmission line connecting the Taltson grid with the Snare hydro system grid.
The CMIF is a Canadian Critical Minerals Strategy program to address infrastructure gaps, enable critical minerals production, and connect resources to markets through various clean energy, electrification, and transportation infrastructure projects.
