Great Plains Power Station
Great Plains Power Station (GPPS) is a 377-megawatt (MW) combined-cycle facility with two generators that each send power out to the grid. It consists of a natural gas-fired generator where compressed air and natural gas are combusted together and a steam generator where after hot gas drives the natural gas generator, the heat is used to make steam.
When the power station begins operations in 2024, it will provide power equivalent to the annual usage of approximately 360,000 Saskatchewan homes. It will be a big part of the local economy, providing long-term jobs for Moose Javians, as well as attracting specialized workers to the city to live and raise their families.
