Project Name*:

The project includes constructing a Gas Fired Power Generation plant approximately 18 km southwest of Rimbey, Alberta. Natural gas for the power plant will be supplied by tying into an existing 16-inch gas pipeline 1.4 kilometers from the plant site. AltaLink Management Ltd. will build a new 240-volt transmission line to tie into the province’s electrical grid. Upon completion, the plant will provide enough power for 360,000 to 550,000 homes.

The project was recently approved by The Impact Assessment Agency of Canada and AUC. Location on the map is not exact.
