Nova Scotia’s energy mix is changing, and natural gas plays an increasingly important role. It helps power our businesses and warms our homes – all while lowering emissions by displacing higher carbon fuels like fuel oil and coal.

We welcome the decision today from the Supreme Court of Nova Scotia to grant the injunction request as it relates to our Alton Natural Gas Storage Project.

We recently lost power at our Alton river facilities. During a recent inspection of the site, flooding in the facilities was identified and electrical equipment has been damaged.

Alton has applied to the Nova Scotia Utility and Review Board (UARB) for an extension to the Approval to Construct the natural gas storage caverns.
