Major projects

As of March 31, 2011 there were 46 projects proposed, planned, under construction or recently completed in the Peace Country region.  Of these, more than one-half (25) are in either the Infrastructure or Institutional sectors.

The total value for the projects in the Peace Country region was $10.8 billion, as of the end of March 2011.  The two sectors with the largest project values are Mining and Oil Sands. Nearly one-third of the total is the Shell Canada Carmon Creek oil sands project, proposed for construction between 2011 and 2016.

Four projects in the Peace Country region totaling almost $4.6 billion were on hold.  The single Mining project accounts for the majority of this dollar figure.

Please Note: 2010 and 2011 cannot be compared because some projects are carried over several years and there is only one cost available for the entire project.
