The Northern Canada Power Commission, formerly the Northwest Territories Power Commission, was a federal Crown corporation established by the Government of Canada to serve as the electric utility for northern Canada. The assets of the NCPC were transferred to the territorial governments of Yukon and the Northwest Territories in the 1980s to form Yukon Energy and the Northwest Territories Power Corporation.[1][2]
