Powering the North
Hay River
We are committed to helping exceptional people realize their potential. We value teamwork, customer service, accountability, and integrity. Working in the North is an experience like no other. Once you are here, you will not want to leave. It’s a work environment and lifestyle comparable to none. If you enjoy the outdoors, volunteering, coaching or sports, we are sure you’ll be happy here. Our mission is to generate, transmit and distribute electricity in a safe, reliable, efficient and environmentally sound manner; striving to reduce reliance on fossil fuels. NTPC exists to provide value to its shareholder and customers through the efforts of a highly dedicated, skilled, and productive workforce. We distribute electricity to end-use consumers in 26 of the 33 communities in the NWT and supply electricity on a wholesale basis to two distributing utilities which, in turn, retail electricity to customers in Yellowknife and the Hay River area. NTPC's facilities include hydroelectric, diesel, and LNG (liquified natural gas) generation plants, transmission systems and numerous isolated electrical distribution systems. NTPC also owns and operates alternative energy assets used for the supply of residual heat, solar power and co-generation. The Corporation’s systems serve a population of approximately 43,000 in an area of 1.3 million square kilometers. Many of the communities NTPC serves are only accessible by air, barge or winter road.
