Maritime Link

The Maritime Link Project involved the construction of hundreds of kilometers of power transmission infrastructure in 2017 to allow Nova Scotia to import renewable energy from Muskrat Falls in Labrador. Harbourside worked on several phases of the Maritime Link Project, with involvement beginning with planning and extended to the completion of construction.
