But that much-loved landscape is also the water source for millions of Albertans. Opening those summits and foothills to development provoked a severe and widespread backlash that ran from urban environmentalists to small-town mayors to country music stars. Doyle said Montem is to focus its efforts on plans to turn the Tent Mountain site, which hasn’t produced coal since 1983, into a renewable energy facility. The company proposes to use wind power to pump water to a storage pond partway up the mountain and generate electricity as it is released back downhill.
Doyle said previous plans to use the generated electricity to split water molecules and create hydrogen have been set aside.He said Montem will make a final investment decision on the project in 2025.
