The Board of Directors for NaiKun Wind Energy Group (NaiKun) executed a Letter of Intent (LOI) with DONG Energy to further advance its offshore wind project, proposed in Hecate Strait between Haida Gwaii and Prince Rupert.
NaiKun’s LOI with DONG Energy ensures that NaiKun has access to DONG Energy’s technical expertise and dedicated financial resources, and establishes a framework for a long-term relationship. Naikun’s offshore wind project has the Environmental Assessment Certificates from the Provincial and Federal Governments for the first phase of the project, 300 MW to 400 MW. When approved, it would take 3 years to build and commission. Fully developed in phases over many years, the wind resource in Hecate Strait could provide in excess of 2 GW of power.
