ProjectFollowing the transfer of Hydro-Québec facilities to the City of Saguenay, the city wished to recommission the Pont-Arnaud and Chute-Garneau hydroelectric power stations that were disabled in the 1996 Saguenay flood. The power stations are now fully automated without permanent operators. The spillways, level management systems and existing control systems had to be accessible and integrated into the Hydro-Jonquière telemetry system. |
