Containerboard

The Montréal Containerboard Mill (Place Turcot) was awarded membership in Hydro-Québec’s Energy Savers’ Circle.

This honour is awarded to high-power consuming plants that have showed leadership by cutting their annual power consumption by at least 5%.

The mill’s processes and equipment were analyzed prior to certification, in order to establish and implement a series of power consumption reduction measures.

The Montréal Containerboard Mill (Place Turcot) has continued to improve its energy efficiency by upgrading its lighting system.
This project alone was responsible for an almost 3% drop in the mill’s total electricity consumption.
