Hybrid Energy System for Battle Harbour Island in Labrador
Battle Harbour is a small island in the Labrador Sea just off the South East coast of Labrador. It is a historic site that represents a fascinating era of Labrador history. Presently, electricity is generated on Battle Harbour using a diesel generator. Due to its remote location, the fuel cost on Ba...
