Engaging our communities
The renewable energy transition will take all of us working together. We engage openly and transparently with our communities to manage impacts and create lasting benefits for all.
Local Community
Involving community voices
Local knowledge is essential to our process. Our role is to listen and communicate, so all voices are considered in our decision-making.
Sustainability
Protecting the environment
Environmental research is a key part of our work. As we transition towards renewable energy, we are stewards of the lands we operate.
education
Spreading knowledge
While hydro technology has been around for awhile, it’s new to many of us. Learn about the history and the benefits of pumped hydro.
Heritage
Honouring our indigenous peoples
We acknowledge and respect the places under our custodianship and work closely with the First Nations communities to ensure heritage is protected.
community connect
Connect with our project teams
We provide a space to ask questions, share feedback and learn more about our projects.
