Concept Illumination: Lighting Project – Maisonneuve Terminal – Significant Improvement in Nighttime Visibility
Termont Montréal Inc., operator of the Maisonneuve Terminal at the Port of Montreal, mandated Concept Illumination to modernize the site’s outdoor lighting system. As a busy maritime hub governed by strict safety and operational standards, the terminal required a solution that ensured long-term compliance with the Canadian Labour Code while improving reliability, lowering energy consumption, and reducing light pollution. To identify the optimal approach, Concept Illumination carried out a detailed assessment of the existing infrastructure, including the masts, mounting arms, and operational flows across the terminal. This informed a design solution that replaced the fixtures while reusing the existing structures, validated through photometric analyses based on two extreme operating scenarios: a fully empty terminal and one at maximum container capacity.
