Providing fair and open transmission access
In 2001, SaskPower opened its border to wholesale electricity suppliers through the introduction of the Open Access Transmission Tariff (OATT). Transmission Services is SaskPower's contact point for acquiring access to our transmission system and for interconnecting your generation to our transmission system (i.e. line 72 KV or greater). Our mission is to provide superior open access transmission service.
