Financial close for the loan guarantee occurred in late 2013. On September 23, 2020, the first unit at Muskrat Falls was synced to the electricity grid in Labrador. Power from the remaining three units was originally expected to come online in the fall of 2021. However, there were delays in construction, including on the corresponding Labrador–Island Link which will transmit generated power to a converter outside 1720: 1748: 1734: 54: 548:
that the business case, which assumed the Muskrat Falls project was the lowest-cost power option, was “questionable.” LeBlanc said that the project’s economics were not sufficiently tested and that Nalcor failed to consider all potentially viable power options.
