Nuclear

“The Estevan Advantage”

Bruce Power, Canada’s only private nuclear power generator, in their feasibility study on the potential for nuclear energy in Saskatchewan, titled “Saskatchewan 2020. Clean energy. New opportunity.” Said; “Estevan was promising because existing facilities that use water and require infrastructure are already located in the region.”

 

To build operate and manage a nuclear power plant is a considerable undertaking and industry experts agree that the three most important factors are

  • Availability of a skilled workforce
  • Access to cooling water
  • Access to power markets

Estevan’s large workforce consisting of energy industry veterans, the ample waters behind Boundary Dam and the extensive network of existing power transmission infrastructure make Estevan the ideal location for nuclear power in Saskatchewan.

 

Estevan combines world class energy infrastructure, access to US markets and a workforce highly skilled and experienced in all aspects of power generation.
