Poplar River Power Station

The Poplar River Power Station consists of: The power station was originally planned to have four 300MW units. One of the limiting factors in building a power station of that size was the water supply. To obtain enough water for four generating units, SaskPower was considering diverting other water sources towards the East Fork of the Poplar River from as far away as Lake Diefenbaker. Fuel from strip mines about to the north is delivered by the Poplar River Mine Railway. == SaskPower's Emissions Control Research Facility (ECRF) ==

The SaskPower's Emissions Control Research Facility (ECRF), is located at the Poplar River Power Station and has the mandate to evaluate various technologies for controlling emissions. The station has been instrumented to provide real-time sampling of flue gasses. The ECRF facility was decommissioned in 2019. == See also ==
