Medicine Hat’s power plant can, in fact, stand the heat. Hatters have been sweating through heat warnings and temperatures in the mid-30s for close to two weeks. That’s had them cranking the AC to stay cool, which means a little extra strain on the city’s power plant. But it’s nothing the plant can’t handle. The city is well equipped for the current conditions and is generating enough excess power that it’s been able to sell to the provincial grid, says Josh Gale, operations manager, City of Medicine Hat electric generation department.
