Construction began June 17, 2024. As of April 2026: pile driving, substation, foundation work ongoing; completion anticipated early 2027. Fourth planned site (Saint-Augustin-de-Desmaures) had no construction-update page found and is correctly excluded from this dataset pending evidence -- good discipline by the province researcher, no change made.
