Exciting news for the cozy community of Nordegg! A new natural gas pipeline is on the way, and it’s about to make a real difference for families and businesses in the area. Thanks to Alberta's government investing $2.5 million through the Rural Gas Program, residents can expect to save as much as 25% on their heating bills. Sounds like a win, right?

For too long, folks in Nordegg relied heavily on propane and other pricey heating options that left their wallets feeling a little too light during the colder months. But with this new pipeline, families will enjoy safer, more reliable heat and help their local economy thrive.

“This project is a game-changer!” one local official said. “Reliable, affordable access to natural gas means real savings for families and a boost for the local economy.” Construction began in February, and it’s all set to wrap up by fall, connecting Nordegg to the Tidewater Stolberg Gas Plant.

But that’s not all! The government is also putting $8.5 million into the Rural Utilities Program, which aims to make sure rural communities have access to vital services like gas and water. This program is essential for families and businesses who have faced rising heating costs, especially where natural gas hasn’t been available before.

Stay tuned, Nordegg! A warmer, more affordable future is just around the corner.
