NEWS RELEASE

BRASCAN POWER AND CANADIAN HYDRO TO ISSUE
$70 MILLION OF SENIOR SECURED BONDS

GATINEAU AND CALGARY, February 7, 2005 – Brascan Power and Canadian Hydro Developers, Inc. (“Canadian Hydro”) announced today that they will issue, through a private placement, C$70 million of senior secured bonds maturing in 10 years and bearing an interest rate of 5.28 percent per annum. The transaction is expected to close February 11, 2005.

The senior bonds are non-recourse to Brascan Power and Canadian Hydro and are secured by the jointly owned 45 MW Pingston Hydroelectric Generating Station. The net proceeds will be used for general corporate and business purposes by Brascan Power and Canadian Hydro.

“The success of this debt financing at a favorable interest rate reflects the high quality of the generating facility and its strong credit profile,” said Harry Goldgut, Co-Chair and Chief Executive Officer of Brascan Power.

“We are extremely pleased with the debt financing of this marquis asset together with Brascan Power,” said John Keating, Chief Executive Officer of Canadian Hydro. “The Pingston Hydroelectric Generating Station will generate stable, long-term cash flow and is an ideal asset for an interest only, 10 year debt financing.”

The senior bonds have been assigned a preliminary rating of A (High), with a Stable trend, by Dominion Bond Rating Service Limited (DBRS).

Scotia Capital and Trilon Securities acted as agents for this financing.
