Every Child Matters - this simple yet powerful truth lies at the heart of the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation on September 30. This day is an opportunity to honour the resilience of survivors and intergenerational survivors, to remember the children who never returned home, and to acknowledge the enduring impacts of residential schools on Indigenous communities across the country.
This summer, Energy Alberta was proud to be part of the vibrant life of the Peace Region. Across the season, as communities gathered for cultural celebrations, local markets, parades, rodeos and festivals we supported and shared in the region’s rich traditions and strong community spirit.
The suspension is in response to requests by some Indigenous Nations and Communities for a pause to allow them additional time to more fully and meaningfully participate in the regulatory process.

Throughout the summer and fall of 2025 we will begin an extensive series of environmental studies to ensure we fully understand the ecosystems, land, water, wildlife and communities that surround the proposed locations.
In June, the Energy Alberta team attended five meetings with six local government councils to provide an update on the Peace River Nuclear Power Project, answer questions and address concerns brought forward by local government leaders.
Ian Anderson is an Advisor to Energy Alberta bringing his 44-years in the energy industry at the intersection of industry, governments, communities and Indigenous rights and reconciliation.
Water is one of our most important natural resources - and protecting it is central to how Energy Alberta is approaching the proposed Peace River Nuclear Power Project. From early planning through to operations, careful water management will be built into every step, with a clear focus on safeguarding the Peace River watershed and the communities and ecosystems that depend on it.
Energy Alberta carried out important field studies in July and August as part of the early planning work for the proposed Peace River Nuclear Power Project. These studies are a critical step in ensuring the Project is developed safely, responsibly and with respect for the local environment and communities.

We are deeply committed to forging long-lasting, mutually beneficial partnerships with Indigenous communities. At Energy Alberta, we understand that meaningful relationships are built on trust, respect and a shared commitment to progress.
Nuclear energy is one of Canada’s safest and cleanest energy sources and is recognized globally as a critical tool in reducing greenhouse gases and fighting climate change. The use of nuclear power in clean energy production is tightly regulated to ensure the highest standards of safety.
When people think about nuclear energy, electricity generation usually comes to mind first. And for good reason - nuclear power provides clean, reliable electricity around the clock. But in Canada, nuclear technology has also played a quieter, yet profoundly important role for decades: supporting modern medicine.
