NRGreen
NRGreen began operations of its non-regulated waste heat recovery facility at Kerrobert, Saskatchewan on December 29, 2006 and is constructing three additional facilities in Loreburn, Estlin and Alameda, Saskatchewan. Electricity is generated by harnessing the waste heat produced by Alliance Canada's gas turbines at its compressor stations and converting it to electrical energy. SaskPower purchases the power generated from the 5.0 MW Kerrobert facility under a 10-year PPA that expires on December 29, 2016. NRGreen may elect to issue two successive renewal notices, each extending the PPA for an additional five-year period. In addition, on August 22, 2006, NRGreen signed PPAs with SaskPower for the future power generated by NRGreen's three additional waste heat recovery facilities currently under construction upon commencement of operations, which is expected in mid-2008.
NRGreen maintenance is performed concurrently with the Alliance Canada semi-annual inspection of the Kerrobert compressor station.
