Why it matters

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

Terra Energy's projects are part of a plan to build a coal-fired power plant near Skwentna, with emissions piped for underground storage. To make the plant financially viable and attract investors, the company needs major energy users, such as an industrial park or data center, to provide a large customer.
