Rain Power Film

The Sitka Conservation Society and Pundit Productions produced the short film “Rain Power” in 2010 with the primary goal of encouraging policy makers to support a hydroelectric expansion in Sitka. The film shows that a small community like Sitka can be a leader in renewable energy, and that hydropower can be set up in a way not to damage fish runs.   Since the film was produced, funding has been secured for a hydroelectric expansion in Sitka, but for now hydroelectric generation remains at its capacity and the city has had to rely on diesel fuel to supplement its electric needs.
