鈥淭his is an ambitious project, which, primarily because of its scale, brings together First Nations, local government and Hydro-Qu茅bec. This is also a project that will be able to capitalize from recent bulk transmission investments made by Hydro-Qu茅bec in the last decade, which saw the construction of the Chamouchouane-Bout-de-l鈥櫭甽e line. This line will be a prime asset in bringing wind energy to consumers in the Greater Montreal Area. Once fully online, this investment will also bring important operational challenges to Hydro-Qu茅bec, as the corporation will now have to manage this major source of variable power on its network.鈥澛�
