Village of Mistissini
The purpose of the project is to provide a secure supply of power to Mistissini to meet the growth in demand that the area has witnessed in recent years.
The transformer substation will be about 20 km east of the Cree community of Mistissini. It will be fenced and will cover an area of approximately 110 m x 140 m. The tie line will be 46 km long.
