Here’s the latest on SaskPower.
-
SaskPower news releases (April–May 2026) highlight the province’s transmission system strengthening, a power purchase agreement with K+S Potash Canada for up to 62 MW, and an ongoing evaluation process for nuclear technologies including SMRs. These items reflect ongoing grid modernization and diversification of power sources in Saskatchewan.[2]
-
In 2024–2025 SaskPower focused on expanding renewable capacity and large-scale generation projects, including the Great Plains Power Station in Moose Jaw and planned renewable additions, with ongoing procurement processes to add about 600 MW of wind/renewable capacity. The annual reporting from that period shows progress toward these expansion goals.[3][4]
-
For broader context, SaskPower’s official channels and industry outlets have tracked major infrastructure upgrades and partnerships that support Saskatchewan’s growth, including collaborations with universities and industry on interconnection and reliability.[6][2]
If you’d like, I can compile a short, cited summary with links to the exact press releases and provide a quick timeline of key milestones in 2024–2026.
