Every avenue is being explored in the Seaways quest to exhibit the highest standards in building a sustainable business. One example of this commitment to sustainable development is the construction of three hydroelectric power plants on the Welland Canal adjacent to Locks 1, 2 and 3 by Rankin Renewable Power Inc. Enough energy will be generated by these stations to power nearly 5,000 homes, reducing greenhouse gas emissions by 38,900 tonnes of carbon dioxide per year, the equivalent of taking 8,420 passenger cars off the road.
