Utilities
The utilities industry looks after the delivery of water, electricity, and natural gas to your home as well as the disposal of sewage. As of August 2015, Alberta had 26,000 kilometres of transmission lines. This is more than four times the distance between Edmonton and St. John’s Newfoundland. While most of the province's installed electricity-generation capacity is currently from coal and natural gas, it also uses water, wind, waste heat, and livestock manure to generate electricity.
