Four-years after it launched an innovative new technology, SaskPower has captured two-million tonnes of carbon.
Costs of maintenance and operating the Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) facility at Boundary Dam Three (BD3) have been steadily climbing since 2014.
“We asked a written question about the operating and maintenance costs for the carbon capture facility itself, and they indicated last year it was $27 million. Their budget I think was around $14 million. So, something’s not going well,” SaskPower critic Sproule said.
