Hydro Quebec warning of significant delays for residential, commercial hookups

Hydro Quebec warning of significant delays for residential, commercial hookups

27 September 2022 à 12:00 am

Hydro Quebec is advising customers that they are facing significant delays in connecting both residential and commercial customers to the grid, mainly due to high demand. Alain Paquette, Hydro Quebec’s community relations officer for the Outaouais region, added that with the heavy storms earlier this year crews had to prioritize emergency situations, which further added to the delays for routine hookups and other work.

Paquette said that the length of delay depended on the complexity of the work required. Jobs requiring engineering work could be delayed by a year or more.

He advised those planning a construction project to submit any requests to Hydro Quebec as early as possible.
