We are looking at, for example, some of the smaller communities possibly in the Deh Cho or Nahendeh for a pilot project for use of biomass for heat; hopefully, if the technology evolves, for electricity. We are working with communities to see about the viability of doing local wood chipping or wood pellets so that we can support some type of biomass initiative. We’ve used solar in a whole host of different places. In Ulukhaktok we’re doing all sorts of energy retrofits. In Fort McPherson we’re doing work in the Chief Julius School, at the health centre, in residences. As an example, some of the things that we are doing with this type of retrofit, trying to realize energy efficiencies and savings.
