Community Benefits

  • Creates new direct and indirect jobs through the development, construction, and operation phases of the Project. Roughly 100 short term jobs will be created throughout development and construction, 2-4 full time jobs will be created for the operation and maintenance of the Project. Approximately 90% of the jobs will be sourced locally.

  • Property tax revenues throughout the life of the Project will support municipal services, infrastructure and education.

Project Influences

Solar projects complete various environmental studies and fulfill reporting requirements as set out by Alberta Environment and Protected Areas as part of the regulatory and government review process. Through a series of standards and best management practices, the visual and environmental impacts are sensitively planned to ensure the impacts on stakeholders, wildlife and wildlife habitat are mitigated.

Permits and Approvals

NU-E Corp (“NU-E”) is working towards all necessary municipal, provincial and federal permits and approvals for the Project. The Project requires approval from the Alberta Utilities Commission (AUC) to construct, operate and connect.

​

  • A Noise impact assessment will be conducted as part of the AUC application. NU-E anticipates the Project noise levels will be within permissible limits as outlined in the AUC Rule 012.                  

  • A Solar glare analysis will be conducted as part of the AUC application. NU-E anticipates the identified predicted glare will be mitigated using the Project’s tracker technology.

​

  • An Alberta Environment and Parks Fish and Wildlife Stewardship (AEP-FWS) Referral Report will be included in the AUC application.

​

The Alberta Utilities Commission (AUC), an independent, quasi-judicial agency of the Government of Alberta that ensures a fair and responsible delivery of utility service. The AUC uses an established process to review applications to protect social, economic and environmental interests of Alberta. The AUC is committed to ensure that Albertans whose rights may be directly and adversely affected by a project have an opportunity to have their concerns heard, understood and considered.

Lethbridge Three

Project Location

In Lethbridge County, it is approximately 2km southwest of the Lethbridge Airport at Township Road 80 and Range Road 215 on private cultivated land. The Project site is in close proximity to existing electrical infrastructure with available capacity for interconnection to the Alberta Interconnected Electrical System (AIES).

Community Benefits

  • The Project will act as a significant job creator, stimulating the local economy through the generation of direct and indirect employment opportunities across its various phases - development, construction, and operation.

  •  An estimated 100 short-term roles are anticipated during the project's development and construction phase, providing valuable income and skill-building opportunities for those involved.

  • Once operational, the project will continue to contribute to job creation, with between 2 to 4 full-time positions expected for ongoing operation and maintenance tasks.

  • In a commitment to support the local community, it is projected that approximately 90% of these job opportunities will be filled by local talent, thus promoting employment and economic growth within the region.

  • Property tax revenues throughout the life of the Project will support municipal services, infrastructure and education.
