TC Energy began geotechnical work in Georgian Bay, utilizing barges that were towed to Owen Sound. The work involved borehole drilling to better understand subsurface conditions for the proposed Ontario Pumped Storage Project. A barge that became stuck on the floor of Georgian Bay waters off Meaford’s military training centre was freed and subsequently towed to Owen Sound.

Why it matters

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

The project plans to build a reservoir on the Niagara Escarpment, with a projected 1,000 megawatts output. This pumped storage facility would supply one million homes and would pump water when electricity rates and demand are low, releasing it to generate power when needed.
