«For 55 days this summer, Yukon community in Beaver Creek ran on solar power. The White River First Nation’s Saa/Se Solar project supplies over half of community’s electricity. The transition will eliminate 340,000 litres of diesel use/yr, offsetting more diesel than any other solar facility in Cda»

Beaver Creek’s White River First Nation leads the way with a solar breakthrough, slashing diesel use by over half and reclaiming energy independence through Indigenous-owned clean power.

  1. the Saa/Se Solar project in Beaver Creek, Yukon, enabled the community to run entirely on solar power for 55 days during the summer. That is a lot of trees/habitat to destroy for less than 2 months of power. There has to be better solutions. Pocket nuclear reactors for example.
