Yukon Energy's facilities in Whitehorse, Mayo and Aishihik Lake allow us to serve customers in most parts of the Yukon...either directly or indirectly through our largest wholesale customer Yukon Electrical Company Limited. Yukon Electric buys power from us and sells it to retail customers in the territory.
Yukon Energy has the capacity to generate 116 megawatts of power. Seventy five megawatts of that are provided by our hydro facilities (40 megawatts at Whitehorse, 30 megawatts at Aishihik Lake and five megawatts at Mayo) and 39 megawatts by diesel generations, which we currently only use as back-up. We also have two wind turbines located on Haeckel Hill near Whitehorse that have the combined capacity of producing 0.8 megawatts of power.
