SaskPower Small Modular Reactor Project

Saskatchewan’s first nuclear project, a 315 MW BWRX-300 near Estevan with a second unit possible at the same site. Site selection between two candidate locations is due in 2026; the final investment decision is not scheduled until 2029, which makes this a long-horizon project rather than a near-term build.

SaskPower began a formal process to evaluate large nuclear technologies.

Runs alongside the SMR programme rather than replacing it.
