Description
Whether it’s the Brentwood and Metrotown shopping complex expansions or new residential developments like the Solo district, there is no question Burnaby is growing rapidly. And all of that growth requires electricity.
BC Hydro is undertaking a major expansion of the local transmission system in Burnaby to meet the city’s expansion and the needs of business and residential customers. Join the BBOT for this special roundtable event to hear about the upcoming expansion and what it means for Burnaby.
BC Hydro’s upcoming projects include the new Big Bend Substation and expansion of the existing Horne Payne Substation. In addition, the Metro North Transmission project will entail a 230-kilovolt line that will serve Burnaby and neighbouring municipalities to address aging infrastructure and growing electricity demand in the region.
Attendees will hear from Greg Reimer, Executive Vice-President of Transmission & Distribution, about how Burnaby will benefit from these significant investments in its electricity infrastructure.
