Protect Existing Energy Sources Strengthen Energy Conservation Continue Energy Diversification Livelihood Diversification • See Health and Safety recommendations • Inspect Xeni Gwet’in housing and public buildings for drafts and install weather stripping where necessary • Inspect Xeni Gwet’in housing and public buildings for insulation quality and install new insulation where necessary • Where relevant replace incandescent bulbs with compact fluorescent bulbs and conventional power bars with smart power bars • Where feasible install root cellars or cold rooms to supplement refrigeration • Where feasible replace old fridges and stoves with energy smart ones • Continue to expand the hybrid systems (particularly the solar aspect) where cost effective • Explore mini‐wind units for hybrid systems • Continue to pursue mini‐hydro development but test for sensitivity to increased summer drought conditions. • Explore other renewable energy supply options such as wind, solar, geothermal and linking into the BC hydro grid system. • Explore a district biomass heating system or a geothermal system for Xeni Gwet’in public buildings and the school • Explore the development of wind energy at the boundary of the XGCA for sale into the BChydro grid 1 2 1 3 4 1 2 1 1 1 2 Housing Dept Housing Dept Housing Dept Health Dept Housing Dept Xeni Gwet’in XG XG XG/Econ Dev XG/Econ Dev XG/Econ Dev Short‐term Short‐term Short‐term Mid–term Mid‐term Short‐term Short‐term Short‐term Short‐term Short‐term Mid‐term 77
