TransAlta is an independent power producer based in Alberta, Canada. The company owns more than 70 power plants in Canada, the Western United States, and Australia. TransAlta's net generating capacity is approximately two thirds coal or natural gas-fired. The remaining one third consists primarily of hydroelectric plants and wind energy farms. We expect this mix to shift to more renewable energy as the company retires Alberta coal plants to comply with carbon emissions legislation. TransAlta also has an energy trading and marketing business and owns natural gas transmission lines. Show more

TransAlta eyes $1.5B in savings by converting coal-fired plants to gas early

TransAlta (NYSE:TAC) says its decision to shut down its coal-fired power plants early and convert them to burn natural gas will save the company $1.5B, based on a projected $50/metric ton carbon tax in 2022.

While “it may be an intuitive conclusion that running the [coal plants] for the longest period of time that you can is the most valuable... our analysis showed that accelerating the conversions was actually the right thing to do," says TAC President and CEO Dawn Farrell, as the "converted plants will run for up to 15 years with roughly half the annual capital spend."

In addition to explaining the rationale behind last month's move announcement that it planned to retire and convert its coal-power generating stations, TAC reported Q1 results that missed analyst estimates, due in part to unplanned outages in the company’s Canadian coal operations.
