Key projects that contributed to this recognition include:

  • River City Fibre (Kamloops): Electrification of the chipper system and installation of an electric conveyor for transporting chips
  • Payload Optimizer (Vancouver): Technology to reduce trips and emissions by maximizing payload efficiency and reducing the need for using a front end loader
  • Telestacker Implementation (Fort St. James): Transitioning diesel material handling to electric
  • Demand-Side Management across Arrow operations: LED lighting retrofits, power factor correction, and compressed air optimization to reduce peak load and improve energy efficiency
 
Each of these projects reflects Arrow’s approach to sustainability — practical, performance-based, and deeply integrated with operational goals.
 
Arrow’s Director of Sustainability, Jacob Adams, proudly accepted the Clean Energy Champion Award on May 13th at River City Fibre in Kamloops, BC, a fitting location given the leadership and impact of our Indigenous joint venture, River City Fibre, in the clean energy transition.
 
Congratulations to the entire Arrow team and our partners for turning ambition into measurable action.
