gbi Wins Prestigious Award for Energy Efficiency
This prestigious recognition was awarded for the design and implementation of a dual energy transfer loop in the Royalmount commercial building, a project located in the heart of the Island of Montreal. As lead engineer, gbi proposed a solution based on 2 interconnected energy transfer loops that optimize energy sharing between buildings, according to the specific needs of each space. With 150 geothermal wells reaching depths of 180 m, renewable energy sources, geothermal and hydroelectricity, supply 86% of the project's energy needs in a highly densified urban environment. “This international award recognizes our ability to design concrete and innovative energy solutions tailored to the challenges of modernity. My greatest pride is that, as a team, we achieved all the objectives while showcasing the expertise of Quebec engineering. Since this concept can be replicated for both buildings and entire districts, we are optimistic about adapting it to other projects on a global scale,” said Serge Beaudoin, P.Eng., president and principal designer of the energy transfer loop “The Royalmount energy project embodies a vision that goes far beyond the simple construction of a shopping center, inspiring a paradigm shift toward carbon-neutral, efficient infrastructure focused on community needs,” said Pierre-Samuel Beaudoin, P.Eng., vice president, Strategic Advisory Services. This international recognition adds to another distinction received in September, highlighting the excellence and diversity of gbi's projects. The firm was also honored at the Quebec Consulting Engineering Awards Gala, hosted by the Association of Consulting Engineering Firms of Quebec, winning an Award of Excellence in the Building – Structure category for the Awacak Okiskinohamatowikamikowaw School project.
