Launch of the

Electric Vehicle

Program

Reduction of emissions

from our heating

equipment

→ Green value chain → Climate change

Any employee who would like to acquire an electric or hybrid

vehicle for their personal and professional use now has

access to a $2,000 financial incentive. This measure is in

addition to the public transit reimbursement program offered

since 2011.

With the Electric Vehicle Program, we’re improving our offer

to encourage our employees to adopt more sustainable

means of transportation to decarbonize our activities. Over

the course of the next year, we will monitor the emissions

prevented through this program.

In collaboration with two external partners, we’ve developed

an initiative to evaluate two potential solutions that would

enable us to reduce the GHG emissions generated by our

temporary heating equipment. Presently deployed as a pilot

project, this innovation in the form of a smart control unit

provides better monitoring of the temperature in the work

environment for the comfort of our teams, while reducing fuel

consumption, costs and GHG emissions.

In 2023, we will analyze the benefits of this initiative to better

understand its potential for reducing GHG emissions across

the company.

After having undertaken this intelligent control unit project

to monitor heating on the site, I realized that thanks to

our sense of innovation and our spirit of collaboration, we

can hope to attain our GHG reduction target. While it’s an

ambitious target, we’re putting in place concrete initiatives

today to respond to the needs of tomorrow. I’m proud to

be contributing in my way to greening our industry.
