CORNER BROOK, N.L. — PCL has announced the Western Memorial Regional Hospital project in Corner Brook, N.L. has achieved LEED Silver certification, thanks in part to the installation of a significant geothermal system.
The new hospital was officially handed over by the Corner Brook Health Partnership to the province in November 2023. NL Health Services opened the new hospital to the public this spring. The builders figure the geothermal installation will result in approximately 12 per cent total cost savings over the lifespan of 30 years. The geothermal system enabled the elimination of cooling towers at the hospital, saving up to two million gallons of water per year.
