Overview of Projects Covered by PLAs Sample Clauses

Overview of Projects Covered by PLAs. As a first step, we categorized available PLAs by their sector of activity, the region in which the facili- ty under construction is located, the duration of the projects, and their estimated value. Thus, the 39 PLAs listed were concluded by 20 pro- ponents. As we show in Table 4.1 (above), most of these were large domestic enterprises and Canadi- an subsidiaries of multinational corporations, and many of them have been party to multiple PLAs. The agreements in the sample were concluded for the construction of facilities associated with eight industries. The petrochemical sector featured by far the most proponents (six) and PLAs (16). It was followed by automotive manufacturing (two propo- nents and seven PLAs), power generation (four pro- ponents and four PLAs), primary metal manufactu- ring (two proponents and five PLAs), wood products and paper (three proponents and four PLAs), and mining, logistics and construction (one proponent and one PLA each). Although we only have information on the estimated value of slightly more than half of the PLAs listed, we can say that it varies widely, ranging from $25 mil- lion (TransAlta, 2011) to $2 billion (NOVA, 2018), with an average value of around $300 million. Final- ly, the estimated project duration ranges from one to four years, with about 80% of the projects for which we have this information being 24 months long or less.
