This is a list of power stations in Prince Edward Island, Canada.
Prince Edward Island has nine generating stations, and is the only Canadian province without an active hydroelectric power station (the last, Knox's Dam ended commercial operation in the 1955). The province is largely dependent on imported power from NB Power generation facilities in New Brunswick. Two 180 MW capacity submarine power lines provide more than 80% of the provincial load. Since the early 2000, the provincial government has promoted the province as an ideal location for developing wind farms.
Maritime Electric, a subsidiary of St. John's-based Fortis Inc., operates the integrated public utility serving most of the province, with the exception of the City of Summerside which has had a municipal electric utility in operation since 1920; Summerside Electric purchases power from sources such as NB Power that is transmitted to the city through Maritime Electric's network. Both utilities own and operate generating stations (diesel combustion turbines); these plants are used as peakers or during emergencies.
