With major infrastructure upgrades underway across the country, Canadian cities have a unique opportunity to embed technology in the systems we rely on, and become a global leader in the smart city movement. Read Ben Almond's full article below:
“Flooding is one of nature’s most devastating challenges facing communities today, placing life and property at risk,” said Ian Edwards, our President and CEO. “At SNC-Lavalin, we are committed to helping counter the effects of climate change by providing our clients with industry leading expertise, innovative solutions and effective tools to create safer, flood-resilient communities.” We’re proud to have been reselected to continue providing floodplain mapping services for North Carolina's Division of Emergency Management.
We’re helping strengthen hospital infrastructure across Quebec with expansion and redevelopment projects at three separate hospitals. Revamped operating rooms and specialized care units at the facilities will strengthen Quebec’s healthcare capacity and delivery, as well as improving patient outcomes. These projects build on our Engineering Services business' extensive track record in the healthcare and life sciences space, supporting public health projects locally and globally. This includes engineering both surge capacity solutions and pharmaceutical & biotechnology innovations during the COVID-19 pandemic.
We’ve published our 2021 Sustainability report. We’re calling it Our Vision For Engineering a Sustainable Society. The report lays out SNC-Lavalin’s progress against our existing ESG targets, while highlighting additional commitments made in 2021.
We’re proud to join and support the Alliance for Integrity . We’ll be working with their network of companies to continue promoting a culture of Integrity in business, and combatting corruption globally. Integrity is a core value at SNC-Lavalin. Led by our Chief ESG and Integrity Officer and overseen by our Board, our Integrity program has been independently recognized as globally-leading, including amongst our peers. Our Integrity transformation has seen us take concrete steps to prevent, detect and respond to the risk of wrongdoing. It’s deeply embedded in our culture; a culture that’s personified daily by more than 30,000 employees. Read more about our approach to Integrity here: https://www.snclavalin.com/en/about/integrity
Since 1973 we’ve been helping Georgia provide safe, reliable transportation infrastructure. We will continue providing professional engineering and technical support to help deliver design-build projects in northeast part of the state.
Following the publication of our Engineering Net Zero Canada report last year (examining the roadmap to Canada’s 2050 Net Zero targets), we’ve released “Engineering Net Zero— Is Canada On Track To Meet Its 2030 Targets?” Our new report examines Canada’s interim targets of achieving a 40-45% cut in greenhouse gas emissions by 2030, ahead of the larger 2050 goal. As we highlight, between 2005 and 2019, Canada only reduced its greenhouse gas emissions by 1.1%. Reversing this trend in eight years, and beyond that, requires a sustained and rigorous effort; starting right now. Further electrification, including of transport, oil and gas extraction/refining, and industrial manufacturing processes, along with the development of carbon capture and storage facilities and the commercial availability of hydrogen-fuelled products, is needed to blunt the worst impacts of a changing climate on current and future generations.
We’ve released our 2021 annual report: “Pivoting to Growth”. Inside, we detail our major milestones from the past year. Read more about what we accomplished in 2021, and find the full report below.
Our expertise and leadership in high voltage direct transmission lines is being sought after once again for a critical project that will provide renewable energy from Canada to New York City.
We’ll be working with Moltex Energy to advance the development of their next-generation waste-burning Small Modular Reactor (SMR) technology. We’ll provide strategic support for the development and deployment of their first of a kind SMR in New Brunswick, Canada which uses recycled nuclear waste as fuel.
