TurbinePROs is proud to be part of the Forrest Kerr Hydroelectric Project that received the 2014 Clean Energy BC Project Excellence Award presented to AltaGas. The 195 MW Hydroelectric project in British Columbia, Canada, is the largest run-of-the-river power plant in North America at the time of publishing.
TurbinePROs Rotating Equipment Services (R.E.S.) of Vancouver, B.C. was awarded the contract to install nine Andritz hydro turbines. The project is set in a remote area 1,000 km north of Vancouver at the edge of the Iskut River. The work takes place approximately 1 kilometer below ground with approximately 70 millwrights working together.

TurbinePROs has always been committed to our customers', employees', and entire project team's health and safety. Now, providing the safest, most productive services to power-generating facilities while minimizing and preventing the spread of COVID-19 is of paramount importance. We have worked diligently to develop solutions and protocol above and beyond the CDC's standard health and safety guidelines to mitigate Coronavirus infection while we are servicing critical plant components vital to infrastructure.
It is with great pride and gratitude that we thank every one of our team and those we work with on site who made 2018 the safest year in TurbinePROs' history.

This past summer, we were able to bring in over 45 Supervisors and Keys for training. We focused on Expectations and Leadership. From a Quality Standpoint, we focused on the need to fill out the necessary checklists and forms in the field such as Work Procedures, FME Logs, and Data Sheets, to name a few. These checklists allow the team to work comprehensively towards finishing a project in a timely and safe manner.
