Enmax is reviving plans for a natural gas-fired power plant in the city’s southeast.
Delays have dogged the proposed $1-billion Shepard plant for two years now.
Enmax CEO Charles Ruigrok tells The Calgary Herald there’s plenty of demand for more power again, now that the economy is recovering from its stumbles.
Plant construction begins this month and should finish by August 2015.
It’s believed the plant could supply as much as half of the city’s power.
