Approval is required regardless of the intended use of the facility, including facilities intended solely for on-site consumption, temporary generation, emergency and/or backup generation, or generation that will not ordinarily export electricity to the grid.

The government of Alberta introduced Bill 31, Red Tape Reduction Statutes Amendment Act, 2026, which, among other things, amended the Daylight Saving Time Act to eliminate biannual time changes in Alberta. The Official Time Act and regulations made under it adopt permanent Alberta Time, which is six hours behind Coordinated Universal Time.
The AUC conducted an engagement to amend Rule 021: Settlement System Code Rules and Rule 028: Natural Gas Settlement System Code Rules to reflect the legislative change. The new rules are effective November 1, 2026.
