Project Information

CBA received the power plant approval from Alberta Utilities Commission (AUC) in February 2017. Since then, we have made minor amendments to our project plan, including minor equipment changes and a schedule update. As a result of these modifications, CBA is required to submit a Letter of Enquiry (LOE) to gain approval from the AUC for the changes. CBA intends to submit the LOE in Q4 2018. CBA will provide information and updates to stakeholders through newsletters.
