The delivery and management of the project was led by and integrated Concert team combining infrastructure and real estate expertise to provide development, design, construction, finance, and facility management expertise. The approach and strategy were taken recognizing that delivery of the facility was on the critical path of the overall Major Component Replacement and life-extension program.
Bruce Power provides 30 percent of Ontario’s power. The Office Complex and Training Facility directly supports the Major Component Replacement and life extension program involving the refurbishment of six of eight of Bruce Power’s nuclear reactors over an extended 25 to 30-year period.
The project demonstrates that the public-private partnership model can be evolved to deliver successful project outcomes on smaller infrastructure projects, while delivering value for money.

About the Bruce Power Office Complex and Training Facility Project
The 129,000 square feet building is located on 7.1 hectares in Kincardine, Ontario. It contains offices and specialized training space that are vital to the success of the Bruce Power Major Component Replacement projects, ultimately supporting the Government of Ontario’s long-term energy plan. The refurbishment of the Bruce Power nuclear reactors will occur on six of eight reactors through 2033, beginning in 2020 with Unit 6. These projects will extend the life of the Bruce Power site to 2064.
The new building features a two-story office area with classrooms, amenities, and facilities for the nearly 500 employees. This includes a one-story, high-bay shop with storage and training space for 150 workers.
The facility opened in February 2019 with a 25-year project concession period concluding in 2044.
The Bruce Power Office Complex and Training Facility project utilizes a public-private partnership model with Bruce Power LP. The contract value has not been publicly disclosed.
Concert Infrastructure is proud to be working with Concert Realty Services Ltd. to deliver this project during the operations phase.
