Summary: "In order to establish the wind resource potential and estimated costs, British Columbia Hydro and Power Authority (BC Hydro) has instructed Garrad Hassan Canada Inc. (GH) to carry out an independent assessment of the energy potential and estimated costs of wind energy power generation within the province of British Columbia. This analysis is an update of a previous report by GH issued in May 2005 [1.1] and will contribute to an update of the BC Hydro Resource Options Report (ROR)."--Introd.
