A First Nation in central B.C. has received more than $15.8 million in government money to build what’s expected to be the largest off-grid solar energy project ever built in Canada.

In a statement, Ulkatcho Chief Lynda Price said the new agreement “marks a momentous occasion” for the First Nation, its energy sovereignty and clean power.
