Keeping you connected with news, stories and information about Energy Alberta and the proposed Peace River Nuclear Power Project.

At a time when energy security and economic resilience are more closely linked than ever, Energy Alberta CEO & President Scott Henuset has joined the Green Ribbon Panel - a national coalition of leaders working to advance practical, made-in-Canada energy solutions.

The latest Nuclear Economic Numbers Report from the Canadian Nuclear Association (CNA) shows the impressive momentum the sector has gained in just five years. As of 2024, Canada’s nuclear industry supports 89,000 jobs, up 17% from 2019, with workforce growth expected to rise another 20% in the next three years.

February 11 was International Day of Women and Girls in Science. Energy Alberta celebrates the women in the nuclear industry and working on the Peace River Nuclear Power Project whose leadership and technical expertise are helping advance safe, innovative clean energy solutions - and inspiring the next generation of girls to see themselves in science.

Community Conversations

Thank you to the Peace River & District Chamber of Commerce for hosting a thoughtful and productive conversation with us this week about the proposed Peace River Nuclear Power Project. 

We value the chance to hear directly from local business leaders and talk openly about what this Project could mean for the region - from local jobs and business opportunities to long-term economic growth. 

These conversations help ensure community perspectives are part of the discussion from the very beginning. 

For businesses interested in learning more about potential opportunities, we encourage you to sign up for our procurement registry.
