EDF power solutions North America and the Saulteau First Nations Announce the Execution of an Electricity Purchase Agreement for the Taylor South Wind Project
Saulteau First Nations and EDF power solutions North America announce the signing of a 30-year Electricity Purchase Agreement (EPA) with BC Hydro (BCH) for the 200.6 megawatt (MW) Taylor South Wind Project. The contract was awarded as part of BCH’s 2025 Call for Power and will help the Province of British Columbia meet its growing demand for clean electricity to supply future economic growth.
The Taylor South Wind project is an expansion of the Taylor Wind project which was awarded an EPA contract in 2025. It is an equity partnership, between EDF power solutions and Saulteau First Nations, with the Saulteau First Nations holding a 51% economic interest in the project. Located on Crown Land in the Peace River Region, approximately 10 km south of Taylor, B.C., the project expects to begin delivery of enough power for 60,000 homes in 2032.
“Clean, affordable electricity is essential to strengthening B.C.’s ability to power itself, grow the economy and attract private-sector investment that creates good jobs across the province, and that’s why we’re taking transformative action now to build out BC Hydro’s system,” said Adrian Dix, Minister of Energy and Climate Solutions. “These projects significantly expand our electricity supply, supporting long-term growth while keeping power reliable and affordable for people and businesses.”
