EPA Extension, Decommissioning & Restoration
Based on the Electricity Purchase Agreement (EPA), the project is expected to have an initial operational life of 30 years. At that point in time, the project may seek an EPA extension under a re-negotiated EPA or be decommissioned. Once operations conclude, the site would be decommissioned, which involves the safe removal of site equipment and infrastructure. Then, the site must be restored to a natural state or prepared for other uses such as agricultural, recreation, or First Nations traditional cultural practices.
