Alberta’s contribution to natural gas infrastructure in North America cannot be overstated. With reliable availability and effective storage capacity, natural gas has become one of the cleanest and most used fossil fuels in North America. The TransCanada Mainline pipeline extends from Alberta’s eastern border to Montreal and links 500,000 kilometers of gathering, transmission and distribution pipelines.
Natural gas has a variety of applications whether residential, commercial or industrial – though few of us understand the full scope of its usability. Albertans use natural gas for home heating, cooking, water heating and electricity generation, but may not know that natural gas is even used to transport goods via trucks and marine vessels. Farmers rely on by-products from natural gas to produce the nitrogen-rich fertilizers required to feed their crops and it is even used in the production of some fabrics.
