The Canadian energy infrastructure group Pembina has made a positive final investment decision (FID) on its proposed Greenlight Electricity Centre, a 932 MW CCGT power project in Sturgeon County, within the Alberta Industrial Heartland (Canada). The CAD4bn (USD2.8bn) project, proposed by Pembina (47.5%), in partnership with Morgan Stanley Infrastructure Partners (47.5%) and Kineticor Asset Management (5%), has received all major regulatory approvals and will serve a major data centre development when commissioned in the second half of 2030.
GLEC will utilize two highly efficient SGT6-8000H gas turbines, two SST6-5000 "KN" Steam Turbines coupled with two SGen6-3000W Generators - all from Siemens Energy. Greenlight has ensured delivery timing and cost certainty through a fixed price agreement with Siemens Energy Inc. as well as a long-term service agreement with Siemens Energy Canada Limited. The site has the potential to be doubled to a permitted generation capacity of 1,864 MW.
