<P STYLE="font: bold 24pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin-right: 0; margin-left: 0">TransAlta Corporation Enters into Automatic Share
Purchase Plan</P>

<P STYLE="font: 15pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin-right: 0; margin-left: 0">CALGARY, AB, March 27, 2023 /CNW/ -&nbsp;TransAlta
Corporation. (&quot;TransAlta&quot; or the &quot;Company<B>&quot;</B>) (TSX: TA) (NYSE: TAC) announced today that it has entered into
an automatic share purchase plan (&quot;ASPP&quot;) with a broker in order to facilitate repurchases of TransAlta's common shares (the
&quot;Common Shares&quot;) under its previously announced normal course issuer bid (&quot;NCIB&quot;).&nbsp;&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 15pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin-right: 0; margin-left: 0">The Company previously announced that it had received
approval from the Toronto Stock Exchange (&quot;TSX&quot;) to purchase up to 14,000,000 of its Common Shares, representing approximately
5.2% of the Company's currently issued and outstanding Common Shares, during the 12-month period that commenced May 31, 2022 and terminates
May 30, 2023. Purchases under the NCIB may be made through open market transactions on the TSX and any alternative Canadian trading platforms
on which the Common Shares are traded, based on the prevailing market price. Since the beginning of the NCIB on May 31, 2022, the Corporation
has purchased 5,518,000 Common Shares at a weighted average price per Common Share of $11.85 for an aggregate value of $65,401,768. Purchases
under the current plan include 2,575,700 Common Shares purchased in 2023 at a weighted average price per Common Share of $11.18 for an
aggregate value of $28,802,633.&nbsp;&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 15pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin-right: 0; margin-left: 0">The Company believes that the prevailing price for
the Common Shares may not, from time to time,&nbsp;reflect the underlying value of the Common Shares and that the purchase of Common Shares
pursuant to the NCIB may be an attractive and appropriate use of available funds relative to other alternatives. The ASPP will facilitate
purchases under the NCIB as it will allow for purchases of Common Shares to be made at times when the Company would ordinarily not be
permitted to make purchases, whether due to regulatory restriction or customary self-imposed blackout periods. TransAlta is committed
to enhancing shareholder returns through appropriate capital allocation such as a share buyback and its quarterly dividend, which are
underpinned by the Company's strong free cash flow position.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 15pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin-right: 0; margin-left: 0">Under the ASPP, the Company's broker may purchase
Common Shares from the effective date of the ASPP until the end of the NCIB. The ASPP will facilitate purchases of Common Shares under
the NCIB by authorizing the Company's broker to make purchases at its sole discretion based on parameters set by the Company in accordance
with TSX rules, applicable law and the terms of the ASPP. Outside of periods that the Company is restricted from purchasing Common Shares
pursuant to insider trading rules or its own internal trading blackout policies, Common Shares may also be purchased based on management's
discretion, in compliance with TSX rules and applicable law.&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 15pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin-right: 0; margin-left: 0">All purchases of Common Shares made under the ASPP
will be included in determining the number of Common Shares purchased under the NCIB. Any Common Shares purchased by the Company pursuant
to the NCIB will be cancelled. The Company is not currently restricted from purchasing Common Shares pursuant to any insider trading rules
or its own internal trading blackout policies. The ASPP has been pre-cleared by the TSX and will be effective on or before April, 1, 2023.&nbsp;&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 15pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin-right: 0; margin-left: 0">The ASPP will terminate on the earliest of the date
on which: (a) the maximum purchase limits under the ASPP are reached; (ii) the NCIB expires; or (iii) the Company terminates the ASPP
in accordance with its terms.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 17.5pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 0"><B>About TransAlta Corporation:</B></P>
