The Landrie Lake Water Utility in Point Tupper, N.S., will implement a 20% rate increase for current industrial customers over three years, as approved by the Nova Scotia Regulatory and Appeals Board. EverWind Fuels plans to establish a green hydrogen plant and will pay an annual flat rate of $74,000 for untreated water.
This positions EverWind as a mid-sized customer, with initial plans for a $50,000 annual fee and a proposed pipeline and pumping station not included in the current application. The utility indicated its current capacity is adequate for the projected demand of 10 million liters per day from EverWind. The adjustments aim to balance the financial impact on existing customers while accommodating future growth in water demand.
