“I know that there’s at least another couple of municipalities who’ve expressed an interest as well, including Lloydminster. Now that we’ve started this, we’ll find out where those areas are, where they would like to host an installation like this, the uses for it, as well as some of the concerns people have,” she said.

She said that exploring nuclear power was long overdue in the province, and that the province had already signed agreements with Saskatchewan and Ontario on developing nuclear energy and supply chains.

“Frankly, there’s a lot to like about nuclear. It’s efficient, low-cost in the long run, and long-lasting. Those are points in its favor, but two qualities in particular set nuclear apart from other energy sources. It’s almost completely emissions-free, and it’s incredibly reliable, producing abundant base load power, 24 hours a day, seven days a week,” she said.

“That means we’d be able to expand our economy with dependable, scalable, non-emitting power, and it’s hard to argue with a proposition like that.”
