According to Greenbriar's quotes, the capital expenditure needed for the 90-MW initiative will stand between CAD 105 million (USD 83.7 m/EUR 73.9 m) and CAD 120 million. The plan is expected to bring 10-year levelised profits before passion, tax obligation, devaluation as well as amortisation (EBITDA) of around CAD 19.5 million.

Building firm Nu-E Corp has actually been employed to build the plants.

Greenbriar as well as Calgary, Alberta-based West Lake have actually agreed to a wider effort that will see them team up on even more projects and also potentially provide renewable power to upstream oil and gas producers without the capabilities of building their own plants. The partners' goal is to get to 400 MW of installed capacity in the following few years.
