Block heaters. Old fridges. Lighting. Small changes add up. Steve Harrison of NTPC found his by asking one question: where is my electricity going? Read how he answered it, and register for our free webinar: pnwt.ca/take-control-energy #PoweringtheNorth #NWT

When wildfire comes close to home How NTPC crews kept the power system operating through a dangerous wildfire – and what the experience is teaching us about preparing for the next emergency. Read Brendan's story: pnwt.ca/wildfires26 #PoweringtheNorth #NWT #FortSimpson

The NWT's power demand isn't growing 2–5%. It's about to step-change overnight. New subdivisions. NORAD. Mining. Is the grid ready? Lee Brenton has spent 41 years finding out. Read his take 🔗 pnwt.ca/growth-ready #PoweringtheNorth #NTPC #NWT

"The key word is partnership – not contracts, but equity ownership and a real say." Jake Heron's take is worth your time. Read it here: pnwt.ca/partnerships For most of our history, Indigenous peoples had no say in the power built on our land. That's changing. #PoweringtheNorth

Hydro is back at Taltson - clean power is again the backbone for South Slave communities instead of diesel. If you care about where your power comes from, start here: pnwt.ca/taltson #PoweringNWT #hydro #renewables

In the North, reliable electricity is never an accident. It's built months in advance through careful planning and execution. One clear example: winter resupply. Winter resupply: the work that keeps the lights on: pnwt.ca/WinterResupply #PoweringTheNorth #Prepared

We're almost there. The Taltson upgrade is one of NTPC's largest projects, focused on a single goal: securing long-term, clean hydro power for South Slave communities for future generations. TALTSON TO RETURN TO SERVICE BY END OF MARCH. Learn more: pnwt.ca/taltson-mar26 #PoweringtheNorth #Hydro

Extreme cold is testing electricity grids across Canada, utilities asking customers to conserve to avoid rotating outages. In NWT, we’re strengthening infrastructure and planning for higher demand to keep powering our communities as winters get more extreme. #PoweringtheNorth

Mid-2025, we started telling our story. Four posts. Energy crossroads. Innovation. Reliability. Nation-building. Stories. Progress. People. We're just getting started. Subscribe at poweringnwt.ca so you don't miss 2026. #PoweringtheNorth

The coming decade will define the future of energy in the NWT. With careful planning, strong partnerships, and responsible governance, we can help build a system that is more resilient and more sustainable. Learn more: pnwt.ca/northernenergy #PoweringTheNorth #NationBuilding #NWTPower

As neighbours powering the north, we're celebrating the Iqaluit Nukkiksautiit Hydroelectric Project. This Inuit-owned initiative will end Iqaluit's reliance on diesel and strengthen energy security across the region. Learn more: pnwt.ca/iqaluit #PoweringTheNorth

After a challenging year, here's how we are improving systems and preparing for the future. These improvements position us to handle today’s challenges while preparing for tomorrow’s opportunities. Find out what’s being done: pnwt.ca/reliability #PoweringTheNorth
