Poplar River Power Station is a coal-fired station owned by SaskPower, located near Coronach, Saskatchewan, Canada, approximately 8 kilometres (5.0 mi) from the Canada–US border.

The project to build the station was launched in the fall of 1974, with the Morrison Dam being constructed between 1975 and 1977 to provide cooling water for the station. Morrison Dam was built along the course of the East Poplar River. Work on the powerhouse began in 1975.[1] The single stack is 122 metres (400 ft) in height. The lignite used to power the station is supplied from Westmoreland Mining's Poplar River Coal Mine.[2]
