Thanks everyone for your comments. To answer some of the questions raised:
I desire to sell 100% of the power. Using both my property and the neighbors I will have 145m head and taking the contours of the land into account, 1,900m of pipe. I would like to keep the budget low with a DIY approach where possible. I have a 200 series Excavator which should help keep the cost of laying pipe down to a minimum. One main question still remains; does anyone know an approximate amount BCHydro would pay for my electricity? Without that figure I'm just shooting in the dark. Their office told me it was decided on a contract basis so could not venture a guess. Lawrence Balisky _________________________________________________________________ Don't just Search.
