ATCO Power has completed construction of its new 45 MW clean natural gas fired
power plant in Valleyview ahead of schedule, bolstering electricity supply in
fast-growing northwestern Alberta. 


Valleyview II recently went operational in early September, one month ahead of
schedule, the company announced today. 


Designed as a "peaking facility" to bolster provincial grid supply while
providing quick access to additional power when needed, the 45 MW facility is
capable of generating sufficient electricity to power more than 36,000 homes.
Built within budget, it is 100% owned by ATCO Power. 


"The new unit provides additional quick starting capacity to support Alberta's
growing requirements," said Rick Brouwer, President, ATCO Power. "The Valleyview
Generating Station facility contributes to grid stability in the Grande Prairie
region and generates electricity required for continued economic growth." 


Valleyview II is the 10th environmentally progressive power generating facility
built by ATCO Power in the province since 1999. Since 1993, ATCO Power has
constructed 15 independent power facilities worldwide with 3300 megawatts of new
capacity while investing $1.7 billion in its share of the assets. 


ATCO Power is a wholly owned subsidiary of Canadian Utilities Limited, part of
the ATCO Group of companies. ATCO Power is a world-class developer, construction
manager, owner and operator of technologically advanced independent power
generation facilities.
