 PROFILE
Hydro-Québec gets its power by spinning its water wheels. The utility generates and distributes electricity to some 3.5 million residential and commercial customers, primarily in Québec. The operator of one of North America's largest transmission networks, it sells wholesale energy in the US and Canada and has international energy interests. Hydro-Québec owns or operates 37,000 MW of electric generation capacity (93% hydroelectric). The company also has Canadian gas distribution interests and invests in such energy technology as fuel cells and wind power facilities. To prepare for utility deregulation, the Québec-owned utility has split its operations into separate generation, transmission, and distribution units.
