Explore the existing
commercial electrical
production industry in
Saskatchewan.
Indicators for this outcome
(a) | Locate and describe (e.g., power production capacity, when it was built and number of employees) the various commercial electrical generating facilities in Saskatchewan. |
(b) | Present information on the details of the design and operation of one specific electrical generation facility in Saskatchewan. |
(c) | Investigate the rationale of facility placement (e.g., where there is demand, to reduce electricity distribution and limitations on where parts like wind turbines can be transported). |
(d) | Describe how by-products (e.g., fly ash) are used for other purposes. |
(e) | Explain the difference between power production capacity and supplied electricity. |
(f) | Compare the capacity factor of the different sources of electricity. |
(g) | Explain the need for a supply mix (e.g., intermittent and base load) of electrical sources. |
(h) | Discuss why some electrical production sources are better than others to supply base load electricity. |
(i) | Investigate how electrical production is impacted by peak power consumption times and industrial customers. |
(j) | Examine the partnerships (e.g., First Nations Power Authority, cities, Indigenous communities and co-generation stations) that exist in Saskatchewan. |
(k) | Assess the public perception of the use of coal and uranium as electrical generating sources. |
(l) | Explore the advantages, disadvantages and methods of net metering. |
