Climatic project: Removal of wired Hydro-Québec network for an underground network (Rivière a la pêche - Parc National de la Mauricie)$1.4Mvalue2022start2023end

This contribution makes possible to finance the removal of the monophase overhead wired network currently on site between the St-Jean-des-piles entrance and the Rivière à la Pêche sector, and replace it with threephase underground. This project is part of the desire to reduce the visual footprint in the La Mauricie National Park, reduce power outages related to the many climate changes encountered in recent years, and increase the availability of renewable energy in the region to support the development of public services and visitor experience offerings located in and around the park.

Development of high-voltage cathode materials based on olivine$990Kvalue2024start2027end

The aim of the project is to develop new laboratory-based cathode materials olivine-based cathode materials as alternatives to lithium iron phosphate (LFP) batteries. to benefit from the advantages of this technology, i.e. its low cost and proven safety. The project will also address the issue of the energy density limitations of low-voltage LFP cathodes. As part of this this Project, the Beneficiary and NRC will identify, synthesize synthesis, evaluation and characterization of olivine-based cathode materials olivine cathode materials of the LiMPO4 type, where M is a transition material of th

Scaling and circularity of high‑nickel cathodes for next‑generation Li‑ion batteries$510Kvalue2025start2027end

The project will develop and industrialize nickel‑rich layered‑oxide cathode active materials that deliver high-energy density with reduced cobalt content, and will validate their performance in industry‑relevant cell formats. Hydro-Québec’s Centre of Excellence for Transportation Electrification and Energy Storage and the National Research Council of Canada (NRC) will collaborate on material design, pilot synthesis, electrode engineering and cell manufacturing to accelerate scale‑up. The NRC’s efforts will focus on controlled particle morphology, compositional tuning and surface engineering v
