  1. Clean Energy for Newfoundland and Labrador How wind energy can help.

  2. Presented By Gerry Skinner Labrador Coastal Equipment Ltd. 98 Dogberry Hill Rd. St. Phillips, NL A1m 1C2 Tel: 1- 709 -895 – 6626 Toll Free: 1 – 800 – 895 – 6626 Fax: 1 – 709 – 895 -6629 Clean Energy Solution -Energy Plan 2006

  3. Labrador Coastal Equipment Ltd. Founded in 2000 for the purpose of acquiring as much knowledge as possible in the renewable energy industry and making it available to Newfoundlanders and Labradorians. Newfoundland and Labrador Hydro (NLH) and Newfoundland Power (NP) have been very co-operative in helping this industry to proceed . We have also been sharing our experience and expertise with other parts of the world. We wish to make Newfoundland and Labrador a major international player in the export of renewable energy equipment and knowledge. With the co-operation of federal, provincial and municipal governments we can become a world leader in the renewable energy industry Newfoundland has some of the best shipping and receiving facilities in the world for the export of renewable energy equipment. . Who are we? Clean Energy Solution -Energy Plan 2006

  4. Some of our worldwide projects underway or completed. • Isle of Luing turbine Installation in Western Scotland- 100 kW. • Developer/Contractor for the St. Brendan’s wind power project-100 kW. • Labrador Wind-diesel Power Initiative - 16 communities. • Island Wind-diesel power initiative - 6 communities. • Avalon Wind Power Project 600 MW. • Negotiating with Cuban Utility Company Union Electrica for green house project and Wind Farm in Caya Coco. • Just completed ‘ Energy Market Study ‘ of US Midwest in co-operation with an Atlanta marketing firm. • 100 installations for residential and recreational.
