SaskPower announces new First Nations-owned 100MW solar project – ReNew Canada

January 15, 2026

SaskPower announced it has signed a new power purchase agreement (PPA) with Mino Giizis Solar Ltd. to build and operate a new 100-megawatt (MW) solar facility near Lajord, southeast of Regina.

“This project is another example of SaskPower’s commitment to economic reconciliation with Indigenous peoples,” said the Jeremy Harrison, Minister Responsible for SaskPower. “At 50 per cent Indigenous ownership, Mino Giizis will be a strong example of meaningful First Nations participation in the power system and the provincial economy for decades to come.”

Mino Giizis Solar Energy Facility will supply SaskPower with clean electricity for 25 years from commissioning, supporting its commitment to achieve a net-zero greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions power system by 2050 or earlier.
