Alberta energy watchdog CEO cancels coal hearing in unprecedented move
August 25, 2025
The head of the Alberta Energy Regulator has, for the first time in the agency’s history, cancelled an application hearing for a new fossil fuel project, in what environmental organizations say sets a worrying precedent.
Rob Morgan’s decision revolves around applications by Summit Coal Inc. for an underground mine near Grande Cache, Alta., roughly 430 kilometres west of Edmonton. An AER panel had already decided that a hearing was required and set the quasi-judicial proceeding for Oct. 21.
