Energy Alberta is a Canadian company advancing the Peace River Nuclear Power Project in northern Alberta - a large-scale nuclear generating station designed to provide low-emission electricity to meet Western Canada’s growing energy needs.
The Project would generate up to 4,800 MW of dependable baseload power and support thousands of jobs during construction, along with hundreds of long-term roles that support regional economic growth.
Our mission is to deliver the Peace River Nuclear Power Project - helping build a more resilient and diversified energy mix for Western Canada, while creating long-term community benefits. We are committed to working with Indigenous Nations, local communities and regional partners to inform Project planning, support meaningful participation and maximize opportunities for jobs, training and local business growth.
Canada’s nuclear industry is subject to some of the strictest safety standards and regulations in the world.

Every successful project starts with people. Long before construction plans take shape, there are conversations to have, communities to connect with, information to gather and early work to be done. As Energy Alberta advances the Peace River Nuclear Power Project, people and businesses across the Peace Region are helping make that work possible. Together, we’re building a foundation of opportunities for individuals and businesses interested in working with us.
