UgoWork\u00ae, a lithium-ion energy solutions provider specializing in material handling, has deployed its energy management system as part of the expansion of Canac\u2019s distribution center in Drummondville, Quebec.<\/p>\n

Nearly 150 years after its founding, Canac enters a new phase of growth, marking what both companies describe as a long-term energy journey.<\/p>\n

By expanding its Drumondville distribution center, Canac is betting on lithium-ion for its new wing. Rather than retrofitting an existing facility, Canac integrated lithium-ion energy into the design of its expansion from the outset making energy infrastructure part of a broader operational decision. Carried out with UgoWork, the deployment treats the battery, charger, and software as a single energy system, designed to support the productivity and operational efficiency of this new building. Day to day, this translates into simplified charging, fewer manual tasks for the teams, and fleet monitoring that shifts from reactive maintenance to continuous cloud-based tracking.<\/p>\n

UgoWork\u00ae has deployed its lithium-ion energy management system at Canac\u2019s Drummondville, Quebec distribution center expansion.<\/p><\/div>\n

For Canac, this new wing marks the start of a multi-year journey with UgoWork, set to reduce its carbon footprint and track its productivity and operational efficiency over time. It\u2019s a first step in an energy transition carried out in stages.<\/p>\n

What also drew Canac to UgoWork was a simpler idea: knowing what is happening with its fleet, as it happens. Through UgoPilot\u2122, UgoWork\u2019s battery and energy management platform, performance visibility shifts from retrospective analysis to real-time insight. While this partnership is still in its early stages, that new level of visibility was a key factor in Canac\u2019s decision.<\/p>\n

Beyond the equipment itself, UgoPilot changes what Canac\u2019s team no longer has to guess. Instead of relying on manual checks or reacting once a truck goes down, the platform gives real-time visibility into fleet performance, turning what used to be scattered, after-the-fact information into a clear, ongoing picture. For Canac, this shift from reactive troubleshooting to continuous monitoring was a key factor in choosing UgoWork as its long-term energy partner.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re proud to be writing the first chapter of our relationship with Canac. At UgoWork, we believe energy should be a strategic advantage, not an operational burden. By combining lithium-ion technology, intelligent software and deep operational expertise, we\u2019re helping Canac simplify energy management, gain better visibility into this new wing\u2019s operations, and build a foundation that supports their growth for years to come,\u201d said David Mucciacciaro, CEO of UgoWork.<\/p>\n

\u201cBeyond the technology, sourcing locally mattered to us just as much : working with a Quebec company willing to show us the solution in action before we committed. Seeing it perform firsthand, in a short trial run at our own site, was what gave us the confidence to move forward. UgoWork\u2019s transparency throughout the process, combined with access to clear data on our fleet\u2019s performance, now allows us to manage our energy in a much more informed way and we\u2019re confident this collaboration will continue to deliver value in the years ahead,\u201d said Rapha\u00eble Dumont, Director, Fleet and Delivery, at Canac.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
