Miawpukek First Nation signs MOU for southwest coast hydrogen project – Canada.

Both the prime minister and German chancellor alluded to deals already being signed during the Atlantic hydrogen expo in Stephenville.

One of those MOUs is between the Miawpukek First Nation and an Australian company for a hydrogen project on the southwest coast.

It would be developed in and around the Port aux Basques, St. George’s and Stephenville areas, producing almost a million tonnes of green ammonia per year.

Chief Misel Joe called the Miapukek’s inclusion in green energy projects “historical and transformational,” and cooperation in the spirit of reconciliation.

He says it means that Indigenous Peoples are moving in the right direction, despite the long, hard and difficult road to date.

The Miawpukek First Nation is also working with two other green energy developers—Red Earth Energy and Source Energy—on proposed wind to green hydrogen projects at three other sites on the island.
