In April 2025, SaskEnergy completed work on our eighth solar array installation, two years after the first large-scale solar power system was installed at one of our Town Border Stations in Regina. With all eight sites up and running, SaskEnergy has been turning the warmth of the sun into electricity — an important part of our plan to reduce the emissions from our operations by 25 per cent by 2030 (from 2019 levels). “These installations are a great example of putting our commitment to reducing emissions from operations into action,” says Jayson Domingo with SaskEnergy’s Environment and...

On a sunny day in June, a team of SaskEnergy employees met with an Indigenous Elder, consultants, and the Mayor of St. Louis, Saskatchewan. They wanted to begin a pipeline replacement project, occurring within village limits, with care and respect. Elder Calvin and his team from Fox Valley Counselling led a pipe ceremony for the group alongside the South Saskatchewan River — an important area to Indigenous and Métis communities. The ceremony took place near the buffalo monument in St. Louis, which holds deep cultural meaning. “We’re learning to recognize the importance of the land through...

Ever wonder how new homes, cabins or businesses get connected to our natural gas system? SaskEnergy’s Customer Connect Technicians (CCTs) are instrumental to this process. Adam Colvine works as a CCT in Saskatoon and the surrounding rural area. He personally sees customers’ connection process through from start to finish, to make it as easy as possible to get service. “A highlight of the job is getting to know people, and hearing their stories of how and why they’re building their dream home or cabin. I like being a part of figuring out the best solutions that will help them realize their...

For years, SaskEnergy's Prud’homme Compressor Station has been more than a hub for energy — it’s been a hidden sanctuary for nesting birds. “We've been managing nesting birds at the station for more than 10 years. There are several wetlands near the facility and the area provides excellent nesting habitat for migratory bird species,” says Ashley Syrgiannis, SaskEnergy's Manager of Environmental Assessment. “So, before our Prud’homme Expansion Project began, we approached our Operations team to see if they would be interested in some habitat enhancements.” As part of the Prud’homme Expansion...

What better time to recognize Saskatchewan contractors who are dedicated to safe digging practices than during Dig Safe Month? This April, SaskEnergy launched the Safe Digging Excellence Award to recognize and celebrate contractors who reduce the risk of damage to underground infrastructure by following safe digging practices. In the first year of the award, SaskEnergy recognized three Saskatchewan businesses that make safe digging a focus on every job site — Parkland Contracting and Vac Services (Yorkton), Yaremy Screw Piles (Melfort) and Jerry Mainil Limited (Weyburn). {"preview_thumbnail":"...

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...

A quarter century ago, our construction crews were a main attraction for children spending their summers at Kenosee Provincial Park. SaskEnergy employees worked for several summers to extend gas service to cabins in the area in the late 1990s. “Some kids, you couldn’t get rid of them. They’re pointing and looking; the parents want to go, but the kids want to stay and see us work,” says Dale Staudt, a Crew Lead with our southern Saskatchewan Construction team. “We would stop and explain what we were doing and show them. We’d stand back with the parent and watch one of our guys dig. For a small...

Our First Nations Furnace Replacement Rebate program is just one of many ways SaskEnergy is helping our customers. This was one of several programs we introduced in 2023-24, which are highlighted in our annual report. Yellow Quill First Nation in east-central Saskatchewan is benefiting from this rebate program. New high-efficiency natural gas furnaces are being installed at more than 40 homes. This is helping residents reduce emissions and costs. “For years, the issue of furnaces needing replacement has been a concern for our community. This SaskEnergy rebate really helped,” says Darrell...

Saskatchewan’s continued growth is creating new demand for reliable energy — and we are expanding our system to keep pace! In 2025, we broke ground on a series of complex system expansion projects east of Saskatoon. This included two new high-pressure gas lines and an expanded facility at our Prud’homme compressor station. The first phase — a 40-kilometre gas line from Patience Lake to Prud'homme — was completed last fall, and work on the second phase is now underway. As part of phase two, SaskEnergy will install a new meter station and an 80-kilometre gas line to support customer growth in...

SaskEnergy’s Safe Digging Excellence Awards are back to help kick off the unofficial start to the digging season in Saskatchewan. Three local companies were recognized in April, which is also Dig Safe Month, for consistently going above and beyond to excavate safely. The three Safe Digging Excellence Award recipients are: 1. Fedorowich Construction Limited of Yorkton 2. F. Peters Excavating of Saskatoon 3. Westcor Contracting of Weyburn “SaskEnergy is committed to working closely with contractors to support a culture of safe digging in Saskatchewan,” says Kevin Adair, SaskEnergy’s Executive...
