AtkinsRealis Crew Inc. introduced that it’s been awarded a seven-year contract by way of Rio Tinto for the refurbishment of the Isle-Maligne hydropower plant in Alma, Quebec. AtkinsRealis will supply execution engineering, built-in procurement, and building control products and services to increase the hydropower plant’s operational lifestyles for many years to come back. Commissioned in 1926 as the sector’s greatest hydropower plant, Isle-Maligne1 is about to go through a complete refurbishment.
AtkinsRealis’ cross-regional groups will use state-of-the-art applied sciences and absolute best practices to exchange 8 of the 12 turbine-alternator teams and improve corresponding water passages, together with the architectural, structural, electric, and mechanical components of the stability of the plant. Previous hydropower plant refurbishment mandates by way of AtkinsRealis come with the Rio Tinto’s Shipshaw Growth Venture, OOPG’s Calabogie Redevelopment mission, and BC Hydro’s John Hart Producing Station Alternative mission.
