Members of Pinnacle Renewable Energy, including Senior Vice President of North American Capital Development Andrea Johnston and Burns Lake Plant Manager Brad Farquhar, met with Village of Burns Lake council on Nov. 23 to introduce them to Drax Group, which acquired Pinnacle in April. Drax is a U.K. based company that owns and operates a portfolio of renewable electricity generation assets in England and Scotland. As part of the acquisition, Drax now owns all seven Pinnacle plants in B.C., including the one just east of Burns Lake off of Highway 16. “The meeting was a great opportunity to update the mayor and council on our Burns Lake operations, and acquaint them with the vision, goals and commitment to the community of the new owner of the plant,” Drax representative Selina Williams told Lakes District News.
