Hydro-Québec and Stelpro Create Partnership to Develop Connected Smart Devices

EIN HQ Stelpro 400

Nov 1, 2019

Hydro-Québec’s new subsidiary, Hilo, and Québec company Stelpro are creating a joint venture with a mandate to develop connected devices for smart homes that will contribute to efficient energy use. The devices will be developed in Québec.

The joint venture will develop innovative products designed to manage energy use, such as smart thermostats and other connected devices, and will provide them to both partners. The equipment will be designed in Québec and manufactured in a Stelpro Group plant in Shawinigan.

Known for the quality of the design, manufacturing and assembly of the Maestro smart thermostats as well as for its strong network of distribution partners, Stelpro brings its leading-edge expertise to the joint venture.

Heating accounts for over 50% of a home’s electricity use. Thermostats are therefore a key tool in the smart management of energy use.
