Committed to Our Customers and the Communities We Serve
Safety is No Accident Be aware of what’s below ground when working above.
As SaskEnergy delivers safe and reliable energy to the residents, businesses and industries of Saskatchewan, we are committed to providing competitive rates for our customers and to supporting the province’s economy. Creating meaningful relationships and investing in the communities we serve are key to our success, whether it’s through community grants and sponsorships, local procurement, public education, or engagement with stakeholders and Indigenous groups. At the same time, safety is at the core of everything we do, and we are committed to maintaining the reliability of our system so our customers can count on us year-round. Safety is at the centre of everything we do The safety of the public and our team is at the core of SaskEnergy’s business. From design and construction to operation and maintenance, safety programming is applied to all aspects of our gas lines and facilities. Public safety messaging and awareness We support public safety through customer-focused programs and initiatives, including advertising, odour awareness and damage prevention messaging, and public outreach. In 2023-24, we launched our first-ever safety campaign to educate the public on our above- and below-ground infrastructure, including encroachments and the importance of protecting our gas meters. The goal of the campaign was to increase public safety and decrease gas line hits, encroachments and damage to our infrastructure. Carbon monoxide (CO) awareness is also a focus area. Through our CO alarm program, our technicians distributed more than 1,000 CO alarms throughout Saskatchewan during 2023-24. SaskEnergy also has both an online and in-person first responder training package so those who may arrive first at natural gas emergencies have the information they need to be prepared and keep themselves, and the public, safe.
Encroachments Building a structure over a natural gas line is a hazard and costly to fix.
