At TransAlta, building an inclusive economy is one of our core values, and we’re proud to partner with Bow Valley College to support women in tech. Through the TransAlta Women Pivoting in Tech bursaries, we’re helping 25 students over the next five years by providing $10,000 each to reduce financial barriers and open doors to technology careers. In recognition of our partnership, the multi-purpose hall at Bow Valley College has been named TransAlta Hall, symbolizing our shared commitment to empowering women and building an inclusive economy.

At TransAlta, we're committed to fostering a culture of well-being, psychological safety and inclusion. On World Mental Health Day, we’re proud to share that we're investing in helping our leaders and employees understand mental health, reduce stigma and improve communication strategies across our workplace. We’re making progress, but this is only the beginning. We're keeping the momentum going — because it's long past time to talk about mental health at work.

We appreciated the opportunity for our CEO, John Kousinioris, to engage in a thoughtful discussion with Rob Nicholson from RBC Capital Markets during the Energy Disruptors Conference in Calgary. Their conversation delved into the complex challenges and opportunities facing power markets in the US, Canada, and Australia, particularly regarding rising demands from data centers. Navigating these dynamics requires a careful balance of reliability, sustainability, and affordability. TransAlta is strategically positioned to contribute meaningfully to this ongoing dialogue as we leverage our existing fleet and growth strategy. Thank you to RBC Capital Markets and the conference organizers for fostering an environment that encouraged this important, open, and innovative discussion. It was inspiring to witness the optimism, practicality, and innovation among private sector, government, investors, and industry leaders as we collectively advance toward a sustainable energy future.

We're thrilled to celebrate 25 years of the "Get Growing Garden" project by the TransAlta Retiree Association (TARA), addressing food insecurity in Calgary. Since 1999, TARA retirees have donated over 700,000 pounds of fresh produce to the Calgary Food Bank. This year's harvest was exceptional, with six original volunteers honoured for their 25 years of commitment. Let's keep growing and making a difference! 🌱
