Investing now in the future. Our commitment to improving the reliability and safety of electricity in Haldimand County goes beyond investing in hydro poles and lines. Our summer co-op students are learning hands-on from our knowledgeable staff the complexity of delivering electricity in our community. These are the leaders of tomorrow. Our 2012 summer students arrive with diverse skills and we take pride in contributing to their education by incorporating the importance of safety and introducing the skills necessary to work in this industry.

Staff of Haldimand County Hydro send 6 lucky kids to camp! Our staff raised $2,100 in proceeds that allowed us to send 6 very lucky kids to Salvation Army Summer Camp. Camp will provide a fun and safe environment for these kids to flourish. They will make lifelong friends, accomplish new goals and ultimately make them feel like what they are: someone very special.
