20-Year Outlook

The 20-Year Transmission System Outlook is prepared to provide market participants, customers and interested stakeholders with the overall direction regarding Alberta’s transmission system development over the next 20 years. The document provides a forward look with regard to transmission system development in Alberta with an emphasis on maintaining flexibility for the future. This approach will result in a robust transmission system that will continue to provide reliable service to Albertans, attract new generation supply, support merchant or independent transmission proponents, encourage investment in Alberta and facilitate a competitive marketplace.

We have been targeting year end for the release of the 20-Year Transmission System Outlook and consulting with both industry and government department on its overall progress and at each stage of content development.

The document is in the final stages and we believe it is consistent and aligned with the provincial government's recently released Provincial Energy Strategy. Given the longer term implications of both documents, we are going to review the complete 10-Year Plan and 20-Year Outlook with the AESO board and with government before public release. We will continue to keep stakeholders apprised of the status of the plan.
