Hatch

At Hatch, we are committed to helping Canada meet its net-zero emissions target by 2050. Hydropower, which currently accounts for 61.7% of Canada's electricity generation, is set to play an even bigger role as demand for renewable energy grows. However, the industry faces significant challenges in hiring and training new specialists. Rajib Ahsan, our Director of Operations, Hydropower & Dams, highlighted these challenges in the National Post with our proactive approach to overcoming them. We remain dedicated to sustainability and innovation, ensuring a bright future for the hydropower sector and a more sustainable world.

On World Tunnel Day, we celebrate the incredible engineering feats that connect our world in innovative ways. From transit tunnels to water supply systems, this highly skilled industry never ceases to amaze us with its innovation and dedication. One of our most memorable tunnel experiences in 2024 was the Annacis Water Supply Tunnel in Metro Vancouver. This project not only showcased our technical expertise but also our commitment to sustainable and resilient infrastructure. So far, we’ve completed 80-meter-deep diaphragm walls and 50-meter-deep shaft excavations at both the North and South Sites, procured and delivered a 4.7-meter diameter Tunnel Boring Machine (TBM) from world-renowned supplier Herrenknecht, and launched the TBM, achieving 70% completion of the 2.3 km tunnel. We invite you to share your most memorable 2024 tunneling stories and experiences in the comments below. ⬇️ Let's celebrate the achievements and the people who make these engineering marvels possible! #WorldTunnelDay #Engineering #Infrastructure #Hatch

Together with Vale Base Metals, we recently presented the results of locomotive biofuels trials Energy and Mines: The Decarbonized Mine conference.  This trial successfully demonstrated the use of #biofuels in #locomotive engines in support of Vale Base Metals’ objectives to reduce #GHG emissions from mobile equipment. Over the course of the one-year trial we collected operational and performance data to better understand the performance of different #biofuel and #renewable #diesel blends. These trials demonstrate our commitment to the pursuit of a better world through #positivechange and supports our clients to achieve their #decarbonization targets. #climatechange #technicalexperts #energy #mines
