Manitoba Hydro

Manitoba Hydro is Manitoba’s major energy utility, supplying electricity to homes, businesses and industries across Manitoba. Manitoba Hydro also sells power to over 30 electric utilities in Canada and the mid-western United States. Nearly all the electricity Manitoba Hydro generates comes from self-renewing water power from 14 hydroelectric generating stations. These generating stations are located along the Winnipeg, Saskatchewan, Nelson and Laurie rivers. Manitoba Hydro also has an extensive system of transmission lines and related equipment to transport the electricity that’s generated in northern Manitoba to southern Manitoba and beyond.
