Manitoba Hydro and Great River Energy signed a MOU to jointly investigate the sale of up to 600 MW of electricity from Manitoba Hydro to Great River Energy, commencing in approximately 2020. Under the MOU, the utilities have agreed to discuss supplying some of Great River Energy's long-term electricity needs from Manitoba Hydro's proposed new hydroelectric stations. The new hydro stations include the proposed Keeyask Generating Station, being developed in partnership with four local first nations - Tataskweyak First Nation, Fox Lake First Nation, War Lake First Nation, and York Factory First Nation.
