OFFERING
The Pontiac Industrial park offers many advantages to support the development and ongoing operations of your business. The unique combination of the site's attributes provides compelling benefits for your business and provides a balance between commerce and nature in a quaint rural setting. Its access to low carbon/low cost power (sub C$0.04 /kw), and large volumes of cooling water, make the site ideal for large power users who also need high capacity cooling. Up to 100 MW of power is provided by Hydro-Quebec, a crown corporation that is very motivated to bring new business to Quebec. The site also offers access to millions of gallons of an average 10 degree Celsius (50-degree F) water per day. For businesses that require security – security of business continuity as well as site security – this location provides both, including an easy to isolate peninsular location.
The Province of Quebec offers several competitive tax schemes to incite businesses to set-up shop in the Pontiac region.
