Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5159. The objective of this wind monitoring proposal is to continue to measure the wind energy potential at CN Hill (approximately 130 km from Yellowknife) until the site is next serviced and the equipment removed. This is part of an alternative energy study for the Yellowknife area. Wind data will be collected using instru...

Licensed Year(s): 2020 2019 2018
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.4692. The objective of this wind monitoring proposal is to develop further insight into the wind energy potential for the economic feasibility of building a wind farm in Norman Wells, a remote community that is dependent on gas-electric generation. A 60m meteorological tower will be installed in September 2018. This towe...

Summary: The objective of this wind monitoring proposal is to measure the wind energy potential at CN Hill (approximately 130 km from Yellowknife) for two years. This is part of an alternative energy study for the Yellowknife area. Wind data will be collected using instruments that measure wind speed, direction, and temperature. At CN Hill, the sensors will be installed on an existing Northwestel Tower. Tw...

Principal Investigator: Martin, Sandy D
Licensed Year(s): 2006
Summary: The proposed biophysical and reconnaissance studies are aimed at collecting data to assess the feasibility of constructing a potential oil and gas pipeline for the Mackenzie Gas Project. The 2006 work programme includes: route and site reconnaissance; aquatic and terrestrial studies; and engineering, geological and geophysical studies. Route and site reconnaissance comprise: verification of the ...

Principal Investigator: Millman, Pete
Licensed Year(s): 2002
Summary: The primary objective of this work is to investigate whether a full scale insulated ice pad is economically, structurally, and environmentally feasible in the Mackenzie Delta for the purpose of an exploratory drilling program. The pad will be constructed...
