This year, SaskEnergy staff have put some support for their community both under and on the Christmas tree! At SaskEnergy’s Regina Service Centre (RSC) location in White City, employees set up their annual Share the Warmth Christmas tree. SaskEnergy’s Ruth Copeland has been leading the initiative since it began in 2019. “Having the Share the Warmth tree up is a great way for everyone at the RSC to come together and give back to the community,” says Ruth. The initiative is tied in with SaskEnergy’s Share the Warmth program, where cash grants are given to charitable organizations to help them...

SaskEnergy staff are known to donate their time and money to support those who support others. The company’s United Way campaign is a perfect example of this. This year’s SaskEnergy United Way Campaign raised $35,374.50 for the United Way and its initiatives! “SaskEnergy and the United Way have been working together for nearly 20 years and we are proud to support all of the important work this organization does each year in our province,” says Mark Guillet, SaskEnergy President and CEO. This year, United Way has a special focus on supporting children, through initiatives such as 211...

SaskEnergy’s Tracy Tangen knew about the Cave Pasture long before volunteering for cleanup duty at the former ranch a few weeks ago. Born and raised in the Swift Current area, Tracy has always appreciated the “scenic beauty” of this 286-hectare property just north of the city. The Cave Pasture is a new addition to the Nature Conservancy of Canada (NCC) conservation area in the Southwest Sandhills. SaskEnergy has proudly sponsored this NCC project since 2021. “I think it’s great that the NCC is working to conserve the Southwest Sandhills. We are fortunate to have organizations promoting the...

Attending a sweat lodge for the first time can be a powerful experience. Just ask Kendra Lovas, an employee at SaskEnergy in Regina. “At first, it was hot and dark, my heart was beating fast, and I felt like my skin was burning,” says Kendra. “After the first break, I wasn’t sure if I would go back in, but I told myself that I needed to give it a chance, and I’m glad I did. It was a great experience.” SaskEnergy is committed to building meaningful relationships with Indigenous communities. One way we have done this is through hosting feasts and pipe ceremonies. This was the first time...

Ashley Baer held back tears while wrapping a gift for a child at the Connaught Elementary School Santa Store in North Battleford. “She told me last year they never got any presents,” says Ashley, a SaskEnergy employee in North Battleford. “She told me she was happy her brother would get a gift this year even if she doesn’t. This confirmed that what we’re doing is meaningful and that we need to continue volunteering and donating.” Santa Stores are held in community schools across Saskatchewan, so students can shop for affordable gifts for their loved ones during the holidays. This year...

SaskEnergy is celebrating 25 years of being Saskatchewan’s Champion of Volunteers. With that, many of our employees are renewing their commitment to making an impact in the community. In February, a team of SaskEnergy employees volunteered at the Regina Food Bank. “It feels good to help such an impactful organization. When SaskEnergy employees volunteer with these community staples, we can really amplify our impact and demonstrate our company’s commitment to the communities we live and work in,” says employee Daniel Dietrich. The group volunteered in the Food Bank’s warehouse, sorting and...

As the weather turns cold, our customers rely on natural gas to heat their homes and businesses. SaskEnergy plans year-round to provide Saskatchewan residents with the energy they need. One of the ways we meet the demand for energy is with storage caverns. Storage caverns are large underground cavities where we can safely store natural gas. A storage cavern has an average size of about 40 to 50 Olympic-sized swimming pools and are about one kilometre below the ground. “A storage cavern is the greatest thing for the storage of energy,” says Derek Leach, Director of SaskEnergy’s System Control...
