Empowering First Nations Community in Canada
Kwikwasut'inuxw Haxwa'mis First Nation (KHFN) is a very well-structured and progressive First Nations group at Health Bay village on Gilford Island, Canada. Their council wanted to make their community more sustainable, accessible and attractive to their youth. With this in mind, they secured funding for a renewable energy system to reduce its dependency on diesel energy generation and offset over 73.000 litres of diesel annually, thus saving 187.600 kg of CO2 emissions.
KHFN installed a 250kW/1.1 MWh Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) and a 221kW PV array, consisting of 114kW PV arrays centrally located near the BESS and generators (local PVs), with the remaining 107kW distributed on the homes and buildings throughout the village. ComAp controllers were installed on the three already existing diesel generators, while an InteliSys NTC Hybrid controller was installed in the master control cabinet. Additionally, a ComAp InteliVision 18Touch display was installed to provide an overview of the entire site.
