A recent blanket exercise at our Regina Service Centre hit close to home for SaskEnergy Operations employee Todd Sanderson. Todd spent eight years in the residential school system and knows firsthand the experiences discussed during the exercise. “The path we had to walk as a people helps explain where we are now,” Todd says. “Our history should be shared to close a gap between cultures that never should have been separated in the first place.” A number of SaskEnergy employees have taken part in blanket exercises as part of our company’s commitment to Truth and Reconciliation.

After a full year of generating power, the large-scale solar installation at SaskEnergy’s Town Border Station (TBS) 1 in south Regina has proven to be a shining success! SaskEnergy’s first renewable electricity system began generating power in April 2023. In its first full year of operation, the TBS 1 solar panels performed even better than expected! “The system was sized according to that site’s annual power consumption, so we expected that the station’s net electrical usage would balance to zero,” says Trevor Ficor, an Engineer-in-Training with our Emissions Management team. But in our 2023...

As SaskEnergy works toward the goal of reducing emissions by 35 per cent by 2030, our Emissions Management team is leading the charge.

We’ve teamed up with the Saskatchewan Public Safety Agency (SPSA) and Technical Safety Authority of Saskatchewan (TSASK) to let you know about the crucial need for carbon monoxide (CO) alarms. Why? Because having a working CO alarm in your home could save your life, and the lives of those you love. Last year, SaskEnergy responded to over 1,500 CO calls. With a CO alarm, you will have early warning protection against the dangers of the invisible, odourless gas that is often referred to as the "silent killer." 1. You need them (it’s the law) “CO alarms are not just a smart choice, but a...

Sometimes your work speaks for itself. That was certainly the case for two of SaskEnergy’s Construction team members. Both Nick Stone and Lucas Sabit found themselves applying for positions as Equipment Operators after working alongside SaskEnergy crews in their previous jobs. “I was working for a company doing horizontal directional drilling, and we frequently did jobs for SaskEnergy. The company was great to do work for — organized, efficient, professional — I really enjoyed doing the jobs for SaskEnergy,” says Nick. “When I saw the SaskEnergy job postings online I knew I’d be crazy not to...

Every day, the Regina Food Bank helps about 500 families — and that number keeps growing. During the holiday season, the need is even greater, making extra help from volunteers essential. Recently, two groups of SaskEnergy employees spent time at the Food Bank, sorting and organizing food donations. For them, it was a chance to give back to the community and strengthen team connections. “The biggest takeaway for me was knowing that our efforts are directly helping those in our community. It felt good knowing that our small act of kindness was making a big difference to those in need,” says...
