Brrrrr it’s cold in here! Luckily, there’s a quick fix! With the simple press of a button on your thermostat you’ll soon be nice and toasty. That was the case for many of SaskEnergy’s customers in February, as they used 36 per cent more gas than they did for the same month in 2024. While we didn’t set a new “peak day” record this winter, February’s daily average for natural gas delivered in the province was the second highest on record. While turning up your thermostat might feel like hitting the easy button, it takes year-round planning and maintenance from teams across SaskEnergy to make...

For several years running, SaskEnergy employees have volunteered their time to support annual community cleanups in Regina and Yorkton. In Regina on May 11, SaskEnergy pitched in at the North Central Community Association (NCCA)’s annual community cleanup to help make the central Regina neighbourhood a bit cleaner and safer. More than 20 employees and their family members assisted in filling nine oversized garbage bins with difficult-to-dispose items. These included tires, scrap metal, mattresses, furniture, appliances and yard debris. Meanwhile, the NCCA enlisted a group of young people to...

There is a lot of good that sharing a little warmth can do. In honour of the 30th anniversary of SaskEnergy’s Share the Warmth program, we launched Share the Warmth Days. The initiative — which ran until February 13 — featured a series of events across the province aimed at highlighting community-based organizations who bring warmth, including shelter, food, clothing and mental health services, to those who need it most. For Share the Warmth Days event, SaskEnergy volunteers partnered with a local organization that was one of this year’s Share the Warmth grant recipients to hand out bags of...

After building a career in the oil and gas industry, Brett Katzberg jumped at the chance to join the Construction team at SaskEnergy two years ago as a Pipeline Welder. “I actually had done a lot of contract work for the company previously and always wanted to get on with SaskEnergy full-time,” says Brett, who’s been welding for 16 years. “To me, this isn’t just a job. It’s a long-term career that offers stability and professional growth. And, for someone with a young family, the work-life balance here is a huge draw.” For fellow Pipeline Welder James Daniels, family played a significant role...

Jim and Linda Dickenson decorate their heritage home to draw people from across Regina to be spooked there on Halloween night. But they were the ones to get a serious scare at home one summer evening. A colourless, odourless, and tasteless poison was drifting up from their basement and lingering near their second-floor bedroom, one that, over time, could send them to hospital — or even worse. Jim’s phone rang, surprising them while they watched a loud action movie. They were up on the third floor of their home that warm, dark evening. Their security company was calling. A presence had been...

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...
