SaskPower Adds Nearly 17 MW of Renewable Power Through the Power Generation Partner Program

To meet the increased demand for electricity in downtown Gatineau, Hydro-Québec will underground four overhead distribution lines between Val-Tétreau substation and Rue Eddy. A new underground concrete duct bank approximately 2 km long will be installed to accommodate the 25-kilovolt (kV) lines. “The growth of downtown Gatineau, specifically the Hull sector, has increased the demand for electricity,” said project manager Pascale Bolduc. “Building the concrete duct bank and undergrounding the existing lines will strengthen the grid and ensure its long-term operability.”
