Our business and clientele continue to grow. HMA has recently introduced a new division to the company that will focus on providing services to the electricity industries in Alberta, BC and Saskatchewan and leading this new division is Doug Downs.

In Alberta alone, the Independent System Operator (AESO) has outlined a Plan showing the need for $14.5 billion dollars expenditure in the transmission industry in the next decade sparking robust interest by generation developers, including thousands of megawatts of wind development to be added to the mix. In BC, the recent “Clean Power Call,” by BC Hydro has resulted in more than two dozen projects being awarded and more being considered.

Across western Canada, transmission and distribution companies as well as wind power developers have told us they need land and consultation services. HMA Land has the expertise and the workforce to help get these projects done. Our team of experts has the experience to secure option agreements and rights-of-way in numerous geographical areas; understanding the consultation requirements of transmission companies and giving wind developers the competitive edge they need.

We can also provide full Project Management helping our customers focus on their core business; saving time, money and regulatory headaches.
