RCES believes that our portfolio of clean power solutions is uniquely positioned to target difficult to reach difficult markets around the world.  In conjunction with our various strategic partners, RCES has a full toolbox of carbon-free and carbon neutral alternatives for both dispatchable, base-load, and intermittent power requirements, and the Company can objectively match a clean power solution to a wide range of power needs. Further, our clean power technologies can complement each other and offer a diversified source of clean, firming capacity and substantially reduce the overall levelized cost of energy (LCOE).

In the near term, as RCES supports the clean energy transition to advanced 4th generation micro modular reactor (MMR) technology, the Company has developed a readily deployable portfolio of advanced transitional clean energy solutions, utilizing advanced flex fuel and hydrogen powered generation that will complement its future MMR offerings and address the challenges associated with intermittent solar, wind and hydro-powered energy production and storage. The company is not wedded to any individual carbon-free or carbon-neutral technology but can offer a range of single source or hybrid generation options from the most advanced providers of nuclear, flex fuel/hydrogen, wind, solar, or hydro generation equipment and battery energy storage technologies. Leveraging our pre-engineered, modular microgrid solutions, RCES will develop sites in coordination with tribal leadership and natural resource developers supported by long-term power purchase agreements (PPAs) and select government clean energy and economic development incentives.  

There is a pressing need to replace existing diesel and other inefficient fossil fuel sources for electric power and process/district heat in industrial applications and in remote areas with clean energy power solutions. RCES brings unique abilities to the development of robust and sustainable microgrids in remote and austere environments and in remote communities. In particular, we are focused on providing reliable clean energy to remote villages, natural resource developments, and mine sites in Northern and Northwestern Canada, the majority of which are Indigenous-owned or on Indigenous lands, that are overwhelmingly reliant on diesel fuel for heat and electricity generation. Given the large range in user requirements, the need for more than one technology to meet all market applications will be critical to these communities.

RCES’s partners have extensive experience in developing energy and infrastructure projects with First Nation partners and we will have an initial end-user focus on Western and Northwestern Canada. RCES’s lead partner in Canada is a First Nation owned independent power producer (IPP) entity. For the past 25 years, our team members have worked in the energy sector and with Indigenous communities in a variety of senior advisory and executive roles.

In the long-term, we plan to develop and deploy advanced 4th generation nuclear power facilities.  Remote indigenous villages and mining sites are an ideal application of rapidly developing MMR technology, which we believe is an ideal long-term approach to providing safe nuclear power in environmentally sensitive, and often extreme, austere environments.
