2021 Summary:
This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5158.
The goal of this project is to verify that wind LiDaR technology has reached a suitable maturity that it can be used in place of a meteorological tower to perform wind resource assessment in subarctic and arctic conditions.
The study will use an existing NRG 60m Meteorological tower located in Norman Wells, and a ...

Summary:
The three objectives of this project are to:
1) document baseline conditions of vegetation communities and rare plant species present at the High Point site;
2) evaluate potential Project-related effects on rare plants, traditional use plants and vegetation communities within the High Point site; and,
3) develop mitigation measures to minimize or eliminate potential Project-related effects to ...

Summary:
Geotechnical investigations are proposed to identify the depth of bedrock and other materials underlying the permafrost onsite. The results of the geotechnical investigations will be used to determine the access route, the project location, and the turbine installation technique.
This activity will include drilling of boreholes and collection of samples for testing. Thirteen boreholes are plann...

The objective of this wind monitoring proposal is to measure the wind energy potential at the Inuvik High Point (approximately 6 km northeast of the Inuvik airport) for two years. This is part of an alternative energy study for the Inuvik area. Wind data will be collected using instruments on a wind tower that will be installed at the site. Two full years of wind measurements and an economic analy...
