Canadian Forces Base (CFB) Kingston

Global Adjustment Mitigation & Resiliency Project

 
 
 

The changes resulting from the Global Adjustment mitigation and resiliency project will create additional capacity to support the decarbonization of heating systems, enable electric vehicle charging, and accommodate future growth across the Base.

Delivering multi-phase infrastructure at CFB Kingston required an integrated, adaptive approach to manage evolving scope and interconnected systems. HH Angus executed several related projects:

  • Phase 1 – Royal Military College: 3MW Global Adjustment (GA) mitigation generators, with installation in 2025 and completion in 2026
  • Phase 2 – McNaughton Barracks: Solar and Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) for power offset and GA reduction; new service entrance switchgear for 2025, with completion in 2026
  • Phase 3 – Vimy Barracks: BESS for GA mitigation scheduled for completion in 2026

Under Johnson Control’s Energy Performance Contract, HH Angus was engaged to enhance resiliency and deliver GA savings, beginning with a feasibility study to define optimal solutions. At McNaughton, obsolete switchgear and deteriorated medium-voltage feeders were replaced, along with new solar and BESS systems to reduce peak demand. At Vimy, BESS provides additional demand mitigation.

As scope expanded, HH Angus added replacement of the adjacent Royal Military College’s main 44kV transformers—one having failed—and recommended a second 44kV transformer at Vimy to improve reliability, as prior inter-ties to McNaughton and Utilities Kingston were no longer available.
