The cost of British Columbia's Site C hydroelectric dam has grown by $6 billion, bringing the price tag of the megaproject to $16 billion and stretching the completion date to 2025.

B.C. is partnering with the province's hydroelectric utility to offer a lower rate for some industries and public transportation agencies with the goal of reducing greenhouse gas emissions, the province announced on Thursday, January 28, 2021.

The December 11, 2017 approval of construction of the Site C Dam by BC Premier John Horgan has set off a wave of intense protest that is growing in depth and breadth.
