OTTAWA, ON, Nov. 21, 2025/ CNW/ – The Effect Evaluation Firm of Canada (IAAC) evaluated the Greenlight Electrical energy Centre Task, a brand-new power creating center sustained by gas, situated 47 kilometres northeast of Edmonton, Alberta, and identified that its possible unfavorable results within federal jurisdiction would be restricted or resolved through other ways.
To come to its area 16 choice under the Effect Evaluation Act ( IAA), IAAC engaged other jurisdictions, federal professionals, stakeholders, the general public, and Native Peoples to examine the task description and determine possible effects within federal jurisdiction and structures to deal with these possible effects.
