The company said the incident caused a “fairly significant” amount of damage.
The power disruption led TC Energy to declare a “force majeure” on Keystone, which means it was operating at a reduced rate due to the damage to the third-party power utility.
The Keystone Pipeline System stretches more than 4,000 kilometres, running from Hardisty, Alta., into Nebraska, where it splits for deliveries into both Illinois and Texas.
