Alberta's Wind Power Generation Takes Sharp Drop on November 26th
On November 26th, Alberta's wind power generation plummeted to just 7 megawatts, representing a mere 0.12% of the province's installed capacity, with natural gas-fired generation accounting for approximately 97% of electricity production in its place. This unexpected shift was crucial in maintaining grid stability during a period of frigid temperatures, and highlights the expanded role that natural gas infrastructure is playing in supporting Alberta's power generation.
