Shepard Energy Centre

The Shepard Energy Centre will use advanced technology and innovative approaches, producing less than half the carbon dioxide CO2 per MW than a conventional coal plant. It will also emit less other emissions such as carbon monoxide (CO), sulphur dioxide (SO2) and nitrogen dioxide (NO2). Shepard will provide substantial input into Alberta’s power grid and will increase reliability, reducing stress on the Alberta-wide transmission infrastructure. The Shepard Energy Centre be the largest facility of its kind in Alberta, being one of the most modern and efficient facilities in the province. It will become operational in 2015.

    Getting emotional about things is a peacetime luxury. In wartime, it’s much too painful.
    Edmund H. North, British screenwriter, and Lewis Gilbert. Captain Shepard (Kenneth More)

    Three elements go to make up an idea. The first is its intrinsic quality as a feeling. The second is the energy with which it affects other ideas, an energy which is infinite in the here-and-nowness of immediate sensation, finite and relative in the recency of the past. The third element is the tendency of an idea to bring along other ideas with it.
    Charles Sanders Peirce (1839–1914)

    St. Augustine described the nature of God as a circle whose centre was everywhere, and its circumference nowhere.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
