Rossdale Power Plant
720nm Infrared
Tokina 28 f2.8 Vintage lens
Power was first generated on the site in 1902, when the city’s original, more flood-prone plant just upstream of the Low Level Bridge was abandoned. The Rossdale plant was the only electrical facility in Edmonton until 1970, when it generated one quarter of Alberta’s power. The plant stopped producing electricity in 2008 and was decommissioned in 2011-12. This decommissioning included demolition of a High Pressure Plant constructed in the 1960s.
