What incentives are available in Nunavut?

TODO-CONTENT-NU-FAQ-INC - Federal Clean Tech ITC (30%) on battery storage, plus territorial and federal northern-energy programs. Most installs are community-scale or off-grid.

Is battery storage required in Nunavut?

TODO-CONTENT-NU-FAQ-BATT - Practically yes - winter darkness + outage frequency + extreme diesel rates make storage the value driver. Federal Clean Tech ITC (30%) helps fund it.
