Province says new transmission infrastructure connecting Sudbury, Sault Ste. Marie and Southern Ontario links northern critical minerals and steel to auto makers and battery manufacturers in the south
Hydro One has been given the green light to construct three priority transmission lines linking Northern and Southern Ontario as part of Ontario’s efforts to become a leader in battery-electric vehicle manufacturing.
“We’re building a made-in-Ontario supply chain that’s connecting the province’s critical minerals and clean steel in the north, to auto makers and battery manufacturers across Ontario,” said Smith in a news release. “These three new transmission lines will power that vision, helping to electrify Algoma Steel’s conversion to electric arc furnace as well as new homes, critical mineral development, and other job creators in northeast and eastern Ontario.
