Grounding and lightning protection

Looking to rebuild a future focused on innovation and sustainable development post-rail disaster in 2013, Lac-Mégantic engaged WSP to implement Quebec’s first microgrid.

WSP is advising on a project initiated by its client DSV, a global transport and logistics company. The goal is to establish a new, modern, future-proof and sustainable logistics centre with a view to creating green savings and increasing efficiency.

The project has a strong focus on sustainability and will be built on a 761,000 m² site in the village of Lund near Horsens. The office building will be certified DGNB Gold, while the logistics facilities will be certified DGNB Silver.

Our work will help the trust reduce its carbon emissions by supporting decision-making on changes to equipment, buildings and infrastructure.

As part of Innovate Energy, a private-partner consortium, WSP is designing, building and converting the existing high-temperature steam system powering Canada’s National Capital Region to a more energy-efficient, low-temperature hot water system to reduce the nation’s greenhouse gas emissions.

World’s largest green hydrogen storage facility being developed in Utah with funding from the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Loan Programs Office will help scale low-carbon energy for western states. 

WSP performed a technical due diligence for a proposed zero-emission blue hydrogen production facility, incorporating carbon capture and storage systems (CCS or CCUS).

Providing project management and coordination as part of a multi-team effort, WSP worked with Cadent on their proposal for a village-scale hydrogen trial for decarbonizing heating and cooking in buildings.

Pre-feasibility design work and planning work for a pioneering hydrogen project that will put the UK at the forefront of net zero innovation. At WSP, we’ve advised gas distribution company Cadent as they lead this energy transition project through its lifecycle and to provide a new way to power the UK’s industry and communities. 

WSP’s proprietary software program, FracMan® is being used to shed light on the impacts of the oil and gas industry’s activities in the US states of Texas and Oklahoma.

A team of WSP researchers is helping unlock the geothermal puzzle.

Essential to ensuring security and reliability of the grid to support increasing renewable energy connections, the new EnergyConnect transmission line will link New South Wales, South Australia and Victoria and would assist in transporting energy from the South-West Renewable Energy Zone to major demand centres.

Building a pipeline must balance completing the work on time and on budget with environmental protection. WSP helped support this balance while working Enbridge Line 3.
