Hydro‑Québec built a new 315/25-kV substation in Saint‑Eustache and 315-kV supply line to meet the growing needs of the municipalities of Saint‑Eustache, Deux‑Montagnes and Sainte‑Marthe‑sur‑le‑Lac.

Located in Saint-Eustache’s industrial sector, the new Patriotes substation was commissioned in October 2020. A new 5-km transmission line connects it to the existing 315-kV line north of Boulevard Arthur-Sauvé.

To connect customers to the new substation, new 25-kV underground distribution lines were built in the three municipalities to be served: Saint‑Eustache, Deux‑Montagnes and Sainte‑Marthe‑sur‑le‑Lac.
