Import/Export Overview
Transmission access is required for parties wishing to arrange for electricity imports or exports to or from adjacent jurisdictions. The Alberta Interconnected Electric System (AIES) has transmission interconnections or inter-ties with both British Columbia (0 to 750 megawatts) and Saskatchewan (0 to 150 megawatts). Typical interconnection transfer capabilities vary within the ranges above depending on system load and real-time operating conditions.
