Mayo Power project upgrade - transmission to link two Yukon Electric Transmission Systems
Why put this in AED? The interconnection of Whitehorse to Dawson, Yukon means that roughly 250 plus miles separates an interconnection between Dawson and Delta Junction, Alaska. On the southern end of Yukon's power grid, a link from Carcross Jct to Skagway's Goat Lake project is roughly 50 miles. So, an interconnection of Southeast Alaska through Yukon to the Railbelt isn't that far fetched. Nothing is understood to be planned by either Yukon Energy nor the Alaska Energy Authority, however an interconnection between the Alaska Railbelt and Southeast isn't insurmountable, nor farfetched either.

The first of several wind generators erected by Alaska Environmental Power, LLC stands on a knoll 120 feet above the Tanana Valley floor near Delta Junction. This 100-kilowatt generator is now providing power into Golden Valley Electric Associations grid. The Fairbanks company will erect a second 900-kilowatt wind generator that will go online in October at the same location with plans to create a 15-megawatt farm in the future.

Two years and a lot of hard work later, a wind farm that now generates electricity into the Golden Valley Electric Association grid is taking shape on a knoll near Delta Junction.
Alaska Environmental Power, LLC has one wind generator up and running, and has set the foundation for another. The generator site is northwest of Delta.

A public consultation for developing Yukon policies for independent power production (IPP) and net metering was announced today by Minister of Energy, Mines and Resources Archie Lang.
“As a key initiative of Yukon’s Energy Strategy, these policies will encourage the development of new small scale sources of renewable energy to help meet our future energy needs while limiting green house gas emissions and improving electrical system reliability,” Lang said.
