Énergir

Énergir is majority-owned by the Caisse de dépôt et placement du Québec (CDPQ) through Trencap L.P., which holds an 80.9% stake. The Fonds de solidarité FTQ owns the remaining 19.1%. This places the firm under the umbrella of Quebec's largest institutional allocator, aligning its capital decisions with a long-term, patient-investor philosophy rather than short-term public-market pressures.

Énergir combines a regulated monopoly on natural gas distribution in Quebec with an unregulated investment arm that takes direct stakes in renewable-energy assets. The Seigneurie de Beaupré Wind Farms, co-developed with Boralex, exemplifies its direct-investment model. The firm's Vermont operations also extend into unregulated electricity transmission.

Énergir sources deals through joint-venture partnerships and co-investment structures. The firm partnered with Boralex to build and operate the Seigneurie de Beaupré Wind Farms, one of Canada's largest onshore wind installations. It also collaborates with Hydro-Québec on dual-energy and renewable integration projects, leveraging its incumbent position in the Quebec energy market to identify development-stage opportunities.

Énergir and Boralex are joint-venture partners in the Seigneurie de Beaupré Wind Farms in Quebec. The project represents a direct co-investment in utility-scale renewable generation, diversifying Énergir's asset base beyond its core gas-distribution business. Both firms share equity in and operational responsibility for the wind farms.

Yes, the firm operates the Énergir Community Engagement Program, which directs corporate contributions toward community initiatives. This structure is separate from its regulated and unregulated investment operations and focuses on local Quebec communities within its service territory.
