Boilermaker BINDER in Bärnbach is providing the Canadian province Northwest Territories with three 40-footcontainers with integrated 800 kW pellet boilers.
Around the provincial capital Yellowknife in the Northwest Territories, barely 500 kilometres south of the Arctic Circle, local pioneers such as Arctic Green Energy have made energy contracting of renewable fuels popular – mainly for public facilities. In this way it is possible to supply the North Slave Youth Correctional Centre (a young offenders’ institution) and the Sir-John-Franklin High School with environmentally friendly heat from boiler systems made in the Province of Styria. From next winter onwards, the urban leisure facilities around the Ruth-Inch-Memorial-Pool, consisting of an indoor swimming pool, ice rink and curling hall, will be heated by the recently ordered heating plant. It will save the municipality around 300,000 litres of fuel oil annually and their CO2 emission will be reduced by 19 percent.
Follow-up orders will be two further, identical container complexes for Northern Property, the largest home building company of the province. This company owns almost 900 apartments in and around Yellowknife that are mainly rented to state institutions or larger companies. From next winter onwards, two further housing areas will be heated by means of environmentally friendly pellets.
