SASKATCHEWAN’S NUCLEAR FUTURE AND EMERGING OPPORTUNITIES Saskatchewan’s energy landscape is at a potential inflection point. SaskPower is in an eight-year planning phase for small modular reactors, with a final investment decision expected in 2029 and potential deployment by the mid-2030s.The province has selected GE Hitachi’s BWRX-300 technology and identified two potential sites near Estevan for detailed analysis.“A significant topic currently under discussion in Saskatchewan is the ongoing research into establishing a Nuclear Power Plant within the province,” Nordick says. “If realized, this would be the first facility of its kind in Saskatchewan, prompting numerous inquiries from local suppliers regarding the necessary certifications to participate in such a project.” For electrical service providers, the prospect indicates substantial provincial investment. Saskatchewan exported $2.8 billion worth of uranium in 2024, and the province holds one-third of the world’s uranium reserves.“This is exciting news for electrical service providers such as ourselves because that means additional investment is coming to the province,” Nordick notes.“By having this additional investment, it will allow us to further be involved with new and exciting projects that will keep the lights on for generations to come.” JA Tech tracks emerging markets through its various memberships. “Through our memberships in the Saskatchewan Industrial and Mining Suppliers Association and the Indigenous Manufacturing and Contracting Network, we access firsthand insights during their hosted events,” Nordick says. The company plans to expand its specialized service offerings and engage highly trained personnel to align with client needs and industry developments.
