Hydro Tech is very pleased to welcome Steven (Steve) Boucher to our team in his role of US Field Services – Special Projects. Steven’s extensive background in hydro technology and his experience in achieving remarkable unit-availability rates make him a valuable addition to the Hydro Tech group.
Steven began his hydro journey in 1985 with manufacturing turbine components and acquiring installation methods from seasoned experts. He refined his skills in onsite field machining and progressed to become an application specialist for Belzona Molecular. Transitioning to International Paper Co., Steven managed maintenance for 23 hydro turbines and various facilities. After 29 years with the paper mills, Steven joined Eagle Creek Renewable Energy as their inaugural Maintenance Manager covering Maine to NY. Eventually focusing on Maine and New Hampshire, he supervised 87 turbines across 24 facilities. With a highly skilled team, Steven achieved 99.8%-unit availability during peak years.
Aside from work, Steven is an outdoor enthusiast who especially loves winter activities like snowmobiling, skiing, and even shovelling! Summer finds him riding his motorcycle or boating Maine’s beautiful lakes. Steven is also a deeply committed family man who prioritizes supporting his aging parents next door and he is planning a new build for them this summer 🙂
Please join us in welcoming Steven to our Hydro Tech family! His wealth of hydro experience will undoubtedly contribute to our continuing success.
