Alberta, Canada’s energy minister has stated that the province is open for business for nuclear power plants. Mel Knight says the government will look at proposed nuclear power plants on a case-by-case basis, but it will not help fund them or promise to buy the energy. Mr Knight’s announcement caps a lengthy consultation and review of whether Alberta should go nuclear or ban it, as some other Canadian provinces have done. Bruce Power of Ontario has been looking at building a nuclear plant near Peace River in NW Alberta, but has not made a formal application to federal regulators.
