McCormick generating station

As early as 1955, the Manicouagan Power Company planned its first expansion by adding three 60,000 h.p. (44.8 MW) turbines, increasing the rated capacity to 292,400 h.p. (218 MW). The plant expansion was facilitated by a C$29 million regulation dam built by Hydro-Québec downstream from Sainte-Anne Lake, on the Toulnustouc River Forced to reorganize under bankruptcy protection, AbitibiBowater was forced to sell its 60% share of the plant to a subsidiary of Hydro-Québec, HQ Manicouagan. The C$615 million transaction was completed in December 2009. == See also ==
