Chatham to Lakeshore Transmission Line
Southwestern Ontario

Aecon’s wholly owned subsidiary, Aecon Power, is building a new double-circuit 230-kilovolt transmission line from Hydro One’s Chatham Switching Station to the Lakeshore Switching Station. This new 49-km transmission line will help meet growing electricity needs in southwestern Ontario, providing approximately 400 megawatts of clean energy to the region. 

Aligned with the commitments of Aecon and Hydro One, a significant portion of the line will include procurement and purchases from qualified Indigenous businesses as subcontractors to Aecon Power.

The Chatham to Lakeshore Transmission Line is part of a network of infrastructure projects across southwest Ontario that will unlock the electrification potential of Ontario's economy to mitigate climate change and help address this forecasted demand.
