Alberta No. 1 will be the first conventional geothermal energy facility in the province. It will consist of a wellfield, electrical generation plant, and district heat use infrastructure. The $90-million project has received $25.45 million in funding through Natural  Resources Canada (NRCan). Nearly 300 indirect and direct jobs will be created through this project. It is estimated that Alberta No. 1 will generate 10 MW of clean electricity and 985 TJ/year of clean heat, offsetting over 97,000 tonnes of CO2 annually.
