Examine potential future
commercial energy
production in
Saskatchewan and
Canada.
Indicators for this outcome
(a) | Predict future trends that may impact Saskatchewan's electrical production (e.g., invention and innovation of power sources, smart meters and use of alternative sources) and consumption (e.g., bitcoin mining, electric cars and on-demand water heaters). |
(b) | Describe technological innovations (e.g., small nuclear reactors and carbon capture) that have been developed to meet current laws and regulations regarding energy production. |
(c) | Investigate how the feasibility of a new electrical source is determined (e.g., start up cost, maintenance cost and the overall cost of electricity). |
(d) | Research the advantages and disadvantages of private (e.g., companies and individuals) and public electrical generation. |
(e) | Examine the partnerships between SaskPower and proposed independent power generation projects. |
(f) | Discuss the stability and feasibility of other sources of energy compared to coal. |
(g) | Research SaskPower's goals and capacity to create renewable power production. |
(h) | Outline the provincial and federal requirements for establishing a new electrical generating station. |
(i) | Explore CANDU and small modular nuclear reactors and their ability to produce baseload electricity. |
