gbi is proud to announce that the double energy transfer loop project at Royalmount – Phase 1 has received an award in the Honoris Genius – Engineering Project category at the Soirée de l’excellence en génie organized by the Ordre des ingénieurs du Québec (OIQ).
This recognition highlights gbi’s expertise in developing innovative energy solutions, particularly in the design of energy transfer loops—an approach at the core of building and infrastructure decarbonization strategies.

The award-winning project demonstrates our teams’ ability to design high-performance, sustainable systems tailored to complex developments. It contributes concretely to reducing greenhouse gas emissions while alleviating pressure on the electrical grid, a critical issue for the community.
We would like to acknowledge the exceptional quality of the projects presented and warmly congratulate all winners and finalists of this edition. This recognition is part of an inspiring event showcasing engineering excellence and innovation in Québec.
gbi also thanks the OIQ for organizing this event, which celebrates the profession’s commitment to excellence and innovation.
About the project
The double energy transfer loop solution optimizes heat recovery and redistribution between various systems within a building or real estate complex. By reducing external energy demand and maximizing the efficiency of available resources, this innovative approach supports the decarbonization of large-scale projects while enhancing their overall performance.
