Project overview
25/120-kV substation in Val-des-Monts and 120-kV supply line
To meet the growing demand for electricity in the region and improve the reliability and quality of the power system, Hydro-Québec plans to build a new 120/25-kV substation in Val-des-Monts.
The substation will replace La Lièvre substation in Val-des-Bois, whose equipment has reached the end of its service life.
To supply the new Val-des-Monts substation, a 120-kV single-circuit line will be built. The line will be connected to the transmission system at Val-des-Bois, on the line between High Falls and Notre-Dame-du-Laus substations. Once the new equipment is commissioned in 2024, La Lièvre substation will be dismantled.
