BBGI Global invests in multimillion hydroelectric PPP project in Canada

BBGI Global Infrastructure S.A. has announced an investment of CAD41 million (US$32.18 million) in InPower BC General Partnership, the entity responsible for delivering the John Hart Generating Station Replacement project in Canada. The investment was made through a partnership with SNC-Lavalin Group Inc

The public-private partnership (PPP) project consists of the design, construction, financing, maintenance and rehabilitation of a new three-turbine, 132-MW hydroelectric power generation station on the Campbell River, British Columbia. It also includes a 3 generating unit underground powerhouse, 2.1 kilometers of water passage tunnels and a water bypass system to protect downstream fish habitat. 

Service commencement was achieved in 2019 and the concession runs until 2033. John Hart Generating Station generates clean and reliable energy for over 80,000 homes. Water intake comes from the John Hart Reservoir, directed to an underground powerhouse through tunnels and three turbines. The water is later released into the Campbell River.
