Comparing the federal energy mix for Saskatchewan in 2019, to SaskPower's claims for 2023, we're going in the right direction with respect to coal. I don't expect Moe's SaskParty to do much better than that, unfortunately. Hopefully nuclear and wind take off more, or we're more willing to import hydro from Manitoba, even at a higher cost.

Though reading that closer, SaskPower's claims for hydro include imports (it's unspecified from where, but the only place that makes sense is Manitoba), while the federal paper is only generating capacity, no imports. I wonder what the mix including imports was in 2019.
