La Grande-1 Generating Station

In the heart of the boreal forest

On the edge of the Canadian Shield, in the heart of the boreal forest, lies the last of the La Grande Complex facilities: La Grande-1. Over 6,000 workers helped build this run-of-river generating station.

Composed of 640,000 m³ of concrete—enough to build a sidewalk from Montréal to Miami—this power plant will impress you with its drive shafts measuring over two metres in diameter.

At La Grande-1 generating station, you'll be amazed to see how well our infrastructures blend with the natural environment.

Imposing and majestic!
