Public Engagement

Building the Project Together

Public Engagement has been a cornerstone of the Peace River Nuclear Power Project from the very beginning.

Energy Alberta is committed to building meaningful, long-term relationships with residents, local governments, businesses, community organizations and other interested groups through honest, respectful and ongoing dialogue.

The goal is to share information, answer questions and better understand local priorities, concerns and opportunities.

These conversations help inform Project planning, while also supporting long-term partnerships and local economic participation.

Conversations that Shape the Project

Engagement is not a one-time activity - it is a commitment to listening, learning and building relationships that will continue throughout every stage of the Project.  

Whether through public information sessions, workshops, community events or the federal Impact Assessment process, we are committed to creating practical and accessible ways for people to ask questions, share feedback and stay informed.  

Ways We Engage

Meaningful engagement takes many forms. From community events and public information sessions to workshops and opportunities to participate in the regulatory process, we are committed to creating accessible, respectful and inclusive ways for people to learn about the Project, ask questions and share their perspectives. Every conversation helps us better understand local priorities and informs Project planning.

Focused Dialogue: 
Workshops & Meetings

Energy Alberta is hosting focused workshops and meetings tailored to specific groups and interests. These sessions are designed to support deeper conversations, explore specific aspects of the Project and gather meaningful feedback, ideas and local perspectives will inform impact assessment and project planning.

Open to All: 
Public Information Sessions

Public information sessions provide open forums where residents can learn about the Project, upcoming milestones, timelines and next steps. These events create opportunities to connect directly with the Project team, ask questions and share feedback in an open and respectful environment.

In Your Community:
Events & Kiosks

Attending local events, festivals and gatherings is an important part of our engagement approach. By meeting people where they are, Energy Alberta aims to create approachable and informal opportunities for community members to learn about the Project, speak with the team and share what matters to them.

Participation in the
Impact Assessment Process

Public participation is an important part of the federal review process. The Government of Canada is seeking input through comment periods, hearings, information sessions and other initiatives. There is a Public Participation Plan outlining how people can get involved, including opportunities to provide feedback on how engagement should occur.

Investing in Stronger Communities

We are committed to supporting the people and communities connected to the Project. Guided by collaboration, respect and shared value, our goal is to contribute to initiatives that have a positive impact across the Peace Region.

Through our Community Investment Program, we aim to build lasting partnerships by supporting initiatives that:

  • Strengthen community wellbeing.
  • Create educational and workforce opportunities.
  • Advance environmental stewardship.
  • Enhance safety and emergency preparedness.
  • Celebrate Indigenous culture and community connections.

Investments may include sponsorships, scholarships, donations, grants, community benefit initiatives and capacity funding designed to help communities benefit from Project opportunities.

ProjectEnergy Lives Here: The People and Businesses Behind our Work

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.
