Environmental Achievements
- CCGT expansion of M2 increased maximum generation capacity to 300 MW and reduced carbon emissions intensity by more than 60% compared to the legacy coal-fired Milner facility and more than 20% compared to simple cycle operations of M2.

Environmental Challenges
- Non-injury fire at M2 in September 2022 delayed commissioning of the CCGT expansion, resulting in lower generation volumes in 2023.
- Application for time extensions of the 86 MW cogeneration power plant at the Milner site was denied by the Alberta Utilities Commission, resulting in project termination and asset write-off.
Mitigation Strategies
- Repairs to M2's air inlet filter house completed in August 2023, allowing for recommencement of commissioning activities and achieving CCGT commercial operations on October 24, 2023.
- Settled property insurance claim for $85.0 million, covering damages to the air inlet filter house and business interruption.
- Terminated the 86 MW cogeneration project and wrote off the assets.

Environmental Challenges
- M2 experienced a temporary capability derate of the legacy cooling tower system, decreasing generation in the second and third quarters of 2024.
- Potential future legislation regarding greenhouse gas stringency and phasing out natural gas-fired generation.
Mitigation Strategies
- Planned maintenance outage in early October 2024 restored generating capacity.
- Monitoring regulatory initiatives and exploring low-emission power generation projects (Buffalo Atlee wind development project).
