In light of the urgent need to reduce their environmental footprint, transport authorities and operators need to accelerate the conversion of their infrastructure and fleets to more sustainable electromobility solutions.

Accelerate Your Transition to Sustainable Mobility

Transport electrification is part of SYSTRA Canada’s DNA. For decades, we have been at the forefront of transport decarbonization, whether for trucks, buses, trains or other vehicles.

Electrification: From Design to Commissioning

Leveraging our unparalleled expertise in transportation planning, electrical engineering, and operations and maintenance engineering, as well as our knowledge of battery technologies and recharging systems, we are transforming the landscape of sustainable mobility.

Our engineers provide support to the largest transportation structures in their energy transition by defining precise requirements and selecting the right equipment, from the earliest stages of the project through commissioning.  Our suite of design tools enables our clients to meet the challenges of electric mobility and maximize its benefits. Optimize performance and accelerate your transition to sustainable mobility with our tools:

  • Heron : Evaluate and forecast energy consumption with predictive models created using AI.
  • Wild Turkey : Define the electrified service proposal by optimizing vehicle traffic graphs.
  • TESS : Optimize fleet, charging infrastructure, and power demand by simulating recharging operations using a simulated  digital twin of your facilities.

Hydrogen: A Promising Alternative

In the context of the energy transition and decarbonization of the transport sector, hydrogen is emerging as a promising alternative. SYSTRA Canada’s expertise in this field covers a complete range of solutions, from the conversion of existing infrastructure to the installation of refuelling stations. Our clients benefit from our expertise in :

  • Conversion of bus depots towards battery and hydrogen electrification;
  • Studies on GHG scenarios for energy transition, including technological options for on-site hydrogen production, delivery, and storage;
  • Studies on the implementation of HRS (Hydrogen Refueling Station) solutions;
  • Definition and description of hydrogen technologies and implementation methods;
  • Identification of regulatory and legal constraints, and analysis of environmental issues associated with hydrogen;
  • Assessment of the technical and functional impact of hydrogen implementation;
  • Financial estimates (CAPEX and OPEX) of technological options;
  • Project coordination and strategic direction recommendations;
  • Renewable hydrogen supply and logistics studies;
  • Preparation of environmental authorization packages;
  • Support in selecting, acquiring, or leasing land;
  • Equipment maintenance and support for operator safety, training, etc;
  • Preliminary design studies, layout plans, structural modifications to infrastructures linked to the adoption of hydrogen;
  • Support in preparing financial packages (subsidies, carbon tax, P3 contract).
