LCG, May 14, 2026--The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) announced today that it is proposing a rule to revise wastewater limits, known as effluent limitations guidelines (ELG), for steam electric power plants that will help improve grid reliability and lower electricity prices while continuing to support clean and safe water resources. If finalized, the EPA's proposal is estimated to reduce electricity generation costs by as much as $1.1 billion annually, which could provide cost-savings to American consumers.

45-Megawatt Plant in Alberta Complete
LCG, Jan. 30, 2002--A gas-fired plant that will provide electricity to Alberta's Rainbow Lake and High Level region has been built in under six months.The Rainbow Lake plant, which is north of Grande Prairie, began as a project to double capacity at ATCO Power's Valleyview project. Instead, ATCO Power and Husky Energy, which operates a gas plant at Rainbow Lake, agreed on bringing the project to the site of an earlier, 45-megawatt cogeneration plant. That plant, which provides steam to the Husky Energy gas plant, started operations in 1999.ATCO Power's president Gary Bauer said of the decision to enhance reliability at the plant's final location, "we quickly adjusted these projects to meet the electricity needs of Albertans in a rapidly growing part of our province."
