ONTARIO, CANADA – Ontario's electricity company Hydro One Networks and Alectra Utilities are executing $190 million (CAD250 million) worth of projects in the Hamilton area to upgrade local electricity infrastructure and improve service reliability.

These investments include installing quieter, more efficient power transformers in four substations across Hamilton, replacing protection and switching devices across the city, and refurbishing a power line originally installed in 1915 that is critical to powering the Hamilton West Mountain area.

Hydro One will be working with Alectra Utilities to replace aging infrastructure at Elgin transmission station.

The projects are expected to be completed by 2022.
