2019 Final Program 1 Congrès 2019 CIGRE Canada Le Westin Montréal Montréal (Québec) Canada • Du 16 au 19 septembre 2019 — Want to make your substations safer, smarter and more efficient? Discover digital substations. As power generation sources become increasingly distributed, intermittent and volatile, achieving the levels of control and performance needed requires a more intelligent, efficient, and reliable grid. This is now possible with digital substations. Built on the international standard IEC 61850, ABB’s world-leading digital substations achieve new heights in reliability, interoperability and real-time performance. The digital substation can save lives, while bridging the gap between the equipment of the process bus level and the station level. Learn more at new.abb.com/grid/technology/digital-substations Also, attend our workshop on Thursday, September 19 at CIGRE Canada! 2 This ain’t your grandma’s grid. Power systems around the world are changing rapidly. Factors like new generation sources, digitalization, and evolving consumer expectations challenge legacy systems every day. The electricity experts at PSC help hundreds of clients safely deliver reliable power to billions of people in twenty five countries. PSC has been supporting clients and delivering complex projects on time and within budget since 1995. How can our experience and global perspective help you?

All rights reserved. 2019 CIGRE Canada Conference Le Westin Montréal Montréal, QC, Canada • September 16-19, 2019 WELCOME MESSAGE FROM GENERAL CHAIR On behalf of the members of the CIGRE Canada committee and Hydro-Québec, I would like to officially welcome you to the 14th Annual CIGRE Canada Conference on Power Systems. Hydro-Québec is proud to host this important event, which will bring together many major players in the energy sector. From September 16 to 19, business leaders, manufacturers, engineers, regulators and academics will come to Montréal to discuss the latest technical and technological breakthroughs as well as major trends in the power industry. In recent years, Montréal has garnered a reputation for being a high-tech centre of excellence and an innovation hub, becoming in the process a global leader in artificial intelligence. The theme of this year’s conference could therefore not be more appropriate: Innovation at the heart of power grid transformation. Innovation must be a top priority given that all aspects of tomorrow’s power grid will incorporate digital technologies, enabling interactive features that promote customer participation. Regardless of your role in the industry, I am sure you share my conviction that the effects of this changing reality are already being felt. This shift pushes us to question our methods, review our current paradigms and rethink our strategies. However, in spite of the very real business challenges resulting from the transformation of our industry, I personally see a remarkable opportunity to draw on our expertise and demonstrate creativity through innovation. Therefore, in the era of transportation electrification, digital transformation and home automation, it is the ideal time to meet and share our knowledge, know-how and innovative practices in order to ensure that the power grid evolves and adapts to the reality of tomorrow. The 2019 CIGRE Canada Conference will provide a unique forum for enriching discussions and new ideas, where you will have the opportunity to learn from your peers on topics of interest including efficient electrification, customer empowerment, asset management and the smart power grid. I also sincerely hope that you will be able to discover all that Montréal has to offer or perhaps get reacquainted with our cosmopolitan city whose European charm and North American enthusiasm have made it world renowned. When you’re not at the conference, I encourage you to discover our local culture by visiting the city’s various neighbourhoods and their many shops, art galleries, museums and restaurants. I’m looking forward to seeing you there! Yours truly, Marc Boucher President, Hydro-Québec TransÉnergie 6 2019 CIGRE Canada Conference Le Westin Montréal Montréal, QC, Canada • September 16-19, 2019 Congrès 2019 Congrès CIGRE Congrès Canada2019 CIGRE 2019 CIGRECanada Canada A DYNAMIC CONFERENCELe Westin MontréalLe PROGRAMWestinLe Westin Montréal Montréal Montréal (Québec)MontréMontré Canadaal (Québec)al • (Québec) Du Canada 16 au Canada 19 • Duseptembre 16 • Duau 1916 20 saueptembre19 19 septembre 2019 2019 Congrès 2019 CIGRE Canada The 2019 edition of the CIGREU CanadaN PROGRAMME conferenceUN UPROGRAMME Nis innovating PROGRAMME DE CONFÉRENCE to reach DE out CONFÉRENCE DE and CONFÉRENCEconnect TRÈS the DYNAMIQUEvariousLe TRÈSWestin playersTRÈS Montréal DYNAMIQUE in DYNAMIQUE the industry and electric utilities in the context of the remarkable global evolutionMontré ofal (Québec) power grids Canada in •recent Du 16 auyears, 19 septemb whichre will 2019 continue in coming years with the gradual liberalization of electricity markets and the penetration of renewable energies into the electricity grid.

  • Copper Shines Brightly for Mcewen Mining - Enhanced Economics of Los Azules
    COPPER SHINES BRIGHTLY FOR MCEWEN MINING - ENHANCED ECONOMICS OF LOS AZULES $2.2 Billion After-Tax NPV@8% and IRR of 20.1% 3.6 Year Payback at $3.00/lb. Copper and 36 Year Mine Life 415 Million lbs. Average Annual Copper Production For The First 10 Years $1.11/lb. Copper Average Cash Production Cost (C1) For First 10 Years TORONTO, Sep 7, 2017 - McEwen Mining Inc. (NYSE: MUX) (TSX: MUX) is pleased to announce the results of a new Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) on its 100% owned Los Azules Copper Project. The results of the 2017 PEA demonstrate that Los Azules is a robust, high margin, rapid pay-back, and long-life open pit mine at current copper, gold and silver prices. The 2017 PEA was prepared by Hatch Ltd., a global multidisciplinary management, engineering and development consultancy known for leadership in mining innovation, under the direction of Donald Brown C. P. Eng (Senior Vice President of Projects for McEwen Mining) with contributions from other industry specialists. The reforms introduced by the government of Argentina under the leadership of President Macri to encourage mining investment by eliminating taxes on exported mineral concentrates was a key factor driving the new PEA for Los Azules. “Los Azules is a giant porphyry copper deposit that offers tremendous potential to generate wealth for McEwen Mining shareowners and other stakeholders,” said Rob McEwen, Chairman and Chief Owner. “Our next steps are to advance permitting and prefeasibility/feasibility studies to move Los Azules towards production.” Los Azules is located in the San Juan Province of north-western Argentina.

  • (“PEA”) for the Production of High- Grade Nickel Concentrate from the Turnagain Nickel Deposit
    October 28, 2020 TSX.V – GIGA Giga Metals Corporation Announces Results of a Comprehensive Preliminary Economic Assessment (“PEA”) for the Production of High- grade Nickel Concentrate from the Turnagain Nickel Deposit Vancouver, B.C. – Giga Metals Corp. (TSX VENTURE: GIGA) ( “Giga Metals” or the “Company”) today announced the results of a preliminary economic assessment (“PEA”) prepared in accordance with National Instrument 43-101 (“NI 43-101”) for the Turnagain Nickel-Cobalt Project (“Turnagain”) located 65 km east of Dease Lake in British Columbia, Canada. The PEA is an update of the 2011 PEA confirming the ability of Turnagain to produce high-quality nickel concentrate, such as that needed to make pure nickel products for the electric vehicle (EV) market, in a socially and environmentally responsible manner. The PEA has been prepared by Hatch Ltd, a global engineering company with substantial expertise in the mining sector, with input from Hatch personnel and industry expert consultants including Wood Mackenzie (nickel and cobalt markets, smelter terms), Blue Coast Metallurgy (process design), Knight Piésold (tailings and water management), Kerr Wood Leidal (power supply and costs), and Kirkham Geosystems (resource model and estimates). Giga Metals’ primary driver for this update was to deliver a reliable and comprehensive PEA incorporating all project- related components for use for discussion with strategic investors, for targeting improvement opportunities, and to serve as a base for future engineering studies. Summary The PEA indicates a long-life, large-scale project. With a projected build capital of US$1.4B (Phase 1) and US$0.5B (Phase 2) including significant investment for a powerline delivering low-cost, clean, low-carbon power from BC Hydro (mainly hydroelectric), the projected capital intensity is US$51,500 per annual tonne nickel at full rates (years 6 to 20).
