The Centre de recherche sur les milieux insulaires et maritimes (CERMIM) and the TechnoCentre éolien (TCE) are signing a collaboration agreement aiming to share expertise to support the energy transition underway in the Magdalen Islands.
In the next five years, in the context of a vast research program, TCE will complete a number of projects aiming to integrate renewable energies onto microgrids. As for CERMIM, it has developed over the past several years an expertise in the energy consumption of the stand-alone grid of the Magdalen Islands. The CERMIM has also accompanied the Communauté maritime des Îles-de-la-Madeleine in its efforts to adopt an off-grid energy strategy for the region.
