Hydro-Quebec Teams With GE Hydro To Expand Power Supply

摘要

Hydro-Quebec, Quebec's provincial utility, generates 96 per cent of its total power output from hydroelectric plants, providing its more than 3.5 million customers with electricity at rates that are among the lowest in North America. To meet Quebec's growing domestic load demand and to capitalize on lucrative wholesale energy markets, Hydro-Quebec is increasing its generating capability with the goal of producing at least an additional 12TWh of electricity annually by 2006.
