Trent Rapids Power Corp.

Between 1899 and the 1920′s, hydro-electric power stations were built along the Trent-Severn Waterway System. These plants formed an important part of the early power grid in Ontario and signaled a 20th century resource use of the waterway.

GPC and Shaman Power have partnered to create Shaman Development Corp. which owns 50% of the Trent Rapids Power Corporation in partnership with Peterborough Utilities Services.

Trent Rapids Power Corporation was formed to develop a small hydroelectric generating facility on the Otonabee River at Peterborough, Ontario. The site of the proposed facility is the west bank of the Otonabee River adjacent to Locks 22 and 23 on private lands and lands leased from Trent University and the Federal Crown.
