About us

Terasen specializes in developing safe, reliable alternative energy solutions with a focus on sustainability. Energy solutions range from renewables such as geoexchange, biomass, and solar energy to waste heat recovery from sewer, industrial and commercial sources.
 
Terasen finances, builds, owns and operates both geoexchange and district energy systems, providing 24/7 customer service and emergency response.  In addition, we also offer clients project management, design, and construction assistance.

Cost competitive

As energy costs continue to rise, now is the time for developers and municipalities to take advantage of locally available renewable energy sources.
 
Terasen alleviates both the cost and risk for the developer or municipality by directly investing in alternative energy infrastructure. And our long-term contracts ensure costs for end users are competitive with traditional energy.
 
Terasen has the resources, skill sets and technology to deliver the right solution for your project.  Whether renewables are the answer or more traditional forms of energy or a combination of both, we will make it work for you – at a cost that works.

Environmentally friendly

Alternative energy solutions are highly efficient, and therefore have lower environmental impacts.
 
Reducing greenhouse gases and utilizing local resources works to achieve emission reduction targets and enhances energy self-sufficiency.
