I removed the political-sell-job "will create so many years of work" bumpf, and also the "TM" on a redlink (trademarks are irrelevant in an encyclopedia article), and also investigated the link to GE about whether or not this is a "partner". it's not listed on GE's partner page; it's an IPP (independent power producer) in BC-speak and also a PPP (public private partnership)....with Plutonic really only a shareholding "shell" for GE's dominant interest. Remaining "refs" here are all Plutonic's own website; and therefore not "reliable third party sources". Missing from this article is teh political setting of this company's situation in BC, which includes BC Hydro being forced to buy power from it at three times the market rate and that its power is seen by critics to be only for export as it will only produce power in seasons when BC Hydro already has a surplus. A license to print money, in other words, and only for export, not domestic use. All in all, much to b added; and as evident from the recent COI p.r. expansions, a lot to be watched out for to make sure this is not just a company brochure.
