The Client

Energir is a lot more than a gas distributor. Energy is at the heart of what we do. Energir is like combining “energize” and “pioneer,” or “engineer,” because for a while now, we’ve been turning words into action. We imagine energy differently.

In Québec, we produce electricity from wind and distribute traditional and renewable natural gas. In the United States, we produce and distribute electricity from hydraulic, wind, and solar sources; we also distribute natural gas there. Furthermore, we invest in innovative energy projects and promote energy efficiency.
