About Saskenergy
SaskEnergy: Saskatchewan's Natural Gas Distribution Company
SaskEnergy is a Crown corporation that has been serving the people of Saskatchewan for over 60 years. As the province's natural gas distribution company, SaskEnergy provides reliable and affordable natural gas to approximately 400,000 residential, farm, commercial and industrial customers.
The company was established in 1952 as a subsidiary of SaskPower, with the mandate to provide natural gas service to rural areas of Saskatchewan. Over the years, SaskEnergy has grown into a major player in the energy industry in Western Canada. Today, it operates over 85,000 kilometers of pipeline and serves customers across more than 1,000 communities in Saskatchewan.
SaskEnergy is committed to providing safe and reliable natural gas service to its customers. The company invests heavily in maintaining its infrastructure and ensuring that its pipelines are up-to-date with modern safety standards. In addition to this commitment to safety, SaskEnergy also strives to be an environmentally responsible company by reducing greenhouse gas emissions through various initiatives.
One such initiative is the implementation of smart meters for all residential customers. These meters allow customers to monitor their energy usage more closely and make informed decisions about how they use energy in their homes. This not only helps reduce greenhouse gas emissions but also helps customers save money on their energy bills.
SaskEnergy also offers a range of programs designed to help its customers save money on their energy bills while reducing their environmental impact. For example, the Home Energy Assistance Program (HEAP) provides financial assistance for low-income households who need help paying their heating bills during winter months.
In addition to these programs aimed at helping individual households save money on their energy bills, SaskEnergy also works with businesses across Saskatchewan through its Commercial Energy Efficiency Program (CEEP). This program provides incentives for businesses that invest in energy-efficient equipment or make other changes that reduce their overall energy consumption.
Overall, SaskEnergy is an important part of Saskatchewan's energy landscape. As the province's natural gas distribution company, it plays a vital role in ensuring that residents, farmers, and businesses have access to reliable and affordable energy. With its commitment to safety, environmental responsibility, and customer service, SaskEnergy is a company that all Saskatchewanians can be proud of.
