Other energy-related points in Wednesday’s Speech from the Throne

When it comes to the energy sector, the Saskatchewan Party government’s principal thrust is the usage of the Saskatchewan First Act to fight the federal government on several climate change initiatives. But there were other energy-related points in the Oct. 25 Speech from the Throne. Here are all the other references to energy in the Oct. 25 Speech from the Throne, as read by Lt.-Governor Russ Mirasty.

Peter Zeihan: The First, Second and Third Shale Revolutions

Peter Zeihan: The First, Second and Third Shale Revolutions

In the past week geopolitical strategist Peter Zeihan released a series of three videos on YouTube explaining how the shale revolution has impacted, well, everything, in the U.S. By extension, this applies to Canada as well. While the Bakken shale revolution in Saskatchewan has largely petered out, as there’s not nearly as fracking going on these days, it is absolutely game-changing in the Montney play of BC and Alberta. There the continued shale revolution is leading to the emergence of liquified natural gas (LNG) exports, including the Coastal GasLink pipeline, LNG Canada, and several more LNG terminals starting to gain traction, finally.

Can solar power essentially flatline for a whole day? It did in Alberta on Monday

Can solar power essentially flatline for a whole day? It did in Alberta on Monday

The Travers Solar Project in Vulcan County was touted by Alberta Energy Minister Brian Jean on Friday, Oct. 20 as the largest in Canada. It has a nameplate capacity of 465 megawatts, and frequently hits that number on sunny days. But that solar facility maxed out at 51 megawatts at 1:16 p.m., according to Dispatcho.app, which logs data from the Alberta Electric System Operator. That’s 10.9 per cent of its capacity. And most of the day, its output was much lower than that.

Danielle Smith and Alberta react to Supreme Court Bill C-69 decision, verbatim

Danielle Smith and Alberta react to Supreme Court Bill C-69 decision, verbatim

“I hope that Ottawa will learn from this mistake. Now today, Minister of Environment and Climate Change, Stephen Guilbeault, the Minister of Energy and Natural Resources, Jonathan Wilkinson, responded to this historic decision upholding the rights of provinces to develop their resources. They tried to position this as a win. It is not. They confirm their plans to bring legislation back to Parliament to amend it. Clearly, they simply aren’t listening.” – Danielle Smith

Royal Helium successfully completes facility commissioning and announces the start-up of the Steveville helium purification facility

Royal Helium successfully completes facility commissioning and announces the start-up of the Steveville helium purification facility

It was a transformative day for Royal, which drilled its first helium exploration well in southwest Saskatchewan in January, 2021. Oct. 12 was the day Royal Helium went from being a helium explorer to a helium producer. And after years of spending money in hopes an eventual return and two years, 10 months since it drilled its first well, that revenue will soon start to flow. It already has offtake agreements in place such that half of its helium production is already spoken for, and it will be used to send rockets into space.
