About

Greenview’s journey began in 2013 with the approval of the Area Structure Plan (ASP) on 18,660 acres of crown land, signalling the district’s intent to develop a world-class industrial hub. By 2015, Greenview had secured a Memorandum of Understanding with the Province of Alberta, paving the way for a special boundary designation. These early steps were critical in setting the foundation for what would become a transformative project for the region.

Greenview Council recognized the need for a long-term economic plan to attract industry, create jobs, and generate revenue, all while ensuring responsible development.

It was established through extensive collaboration between industry leaders and municipal governments. The vision was to create a plug-and-play industrial area that would capitalize on Greenview’s proximity to key transportation routes, abundant natural resources, and an eager workforce. By providing a centralized location for energy development, Greenview aimed to build a sustainable economy that supports both current and future generations.

Over the years, significant investments in infrastructure and regulatory planning have shaped GIG into what it is today—a thriving industrial hub poised for long-term success. This initiative aligns with Greenview’s commitment to economic diversification, responsible development, and ensuring our communities benefit from industrial growth.
