====Power transmission==== In February 2020, Enbridge sold its shares of Montana-Alberta Tie-Line (MATL) to Berkshire Hathaway Energy. The MATL project is a 300-megawatt (MW), 230-kilovolt (kV) electrical transmission line allowing movement of power between Alberta and Montana. The MATL project, which was placed in service the fall of 2013, supports ongoing development of a rich wind-powered generation resource and allows electrical energy to flow in both directions. The transmission line is 210 miles (345 km) long and runs between the [[Lethbridge, Alberta]] area and the [[Great Falls, Montana]] area. Roughly one-third of the line is in Canada and two-thirds in the U.S.<ref>{{cite web|title=Montana-Alberta tie line now fully operational|url=http://poweringalberta.com/2013/09/18/montana-alberta-tie-line-now-fully-operational/|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140714205241/http://poweringalberta.com/2013/09/18/montana-alberta-tie-line-now-fully-operational/|archive-date=14 July 2014|access-date=1 July 2014|publisher=Alberta Electric System Operators (AESO)}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|last1=Kessler|first1=Richard A.|title=Montana–Alberta Wind Power Line Seen Nearing Completion|url=http://www.rechargenews.com/wind/article1297989.ece|access-date=1 July 2014|publisher=NHST Media Group}}</ref>
