Project Description
Nation Rise Wind is a 100 MW wind energy project in North Stormont, Ontario, featuring 33 turbines. TULLOCH provided engineering, geomatics, surveying, geospatial, geotechnical, and environmental services across site development and early construction.
Our work included LiDAR and aerial mapping, legal and topographic surveys, civil and turbine foundation design, geotechnical investigations, construction layout, as-built surveys, and environmental monitoring. TULLOCH also supported the Early Works construction package, including clearing limits, substation works, access, foundations, and grading before major construction advanced.
