  • Since 2012 AltaLink has been responsible for 64% of the transmission built in Alberta
  • We have a proven track record with regulatory applications and stakeholder engagement through the filing of more than 380 transmission Facility Applications with the Alberta Utilities Commission – more than anyone else in the province
  • We have worked together with 30 Indigenous communities on projects and conducted field work with 11 of those communities to identify important land features requiring collaboration
  • We have more than 15 years of experience in operating and maintaining transmission assets in Alberta and we’re proud of our industry leading record on reliability
  • Three of the four successful projects in Round 1 of the Renewable Electricity Program (REP) have been supported by AltaLink. More information on the Renewable Electricity Program can be found here
