We offer a breadth of technical expertise for global markets including clean energy, industrial, transportation, utilities, amusement rides, government and Indigenous relations. We’re passionate about improving the quality of lives across the spectrum.
Renewable Energy
Sustainable energy to reduce our carbon-footprint
As the global demand for less carbon-intensive energy solutions continues to grow, so does the technological advancements required to deliver it to scale. We’re on the cusp of a radical shift in the adoption of electric vehicles, charging infrastructure, independently generated energy with storage applications, and smarter systems to manage increasing load demands. Changing with the times is paramount and requires experts that know how to wade through the complexities.
Hedgehog offers innovative solutions that bridge the gap between energy independence and reducing the consumption of a growing population. From bio-fuel assessments, natural gas, PV solar installations, electric vehicle charging infrastructure and smart microgrids, Hedgehog manages the end-to-end challenges of renewable energy projects.

Marine
Solutions for the world’s most uncharted territories.
Using the latest technology applications, risk assessment standards, and advanced electrical designs, Hedgehog delivers competitive solutions for the marine industry in North America and beyond.
Hedgehog is conveniently located on the edge of the Northwest Pacific Ocean which provides access to the vibrant marine industry that British Columbia has cultivated. Our multidisciplinary approach to subsea vessels, harsh environments, and offshore projects include full life-cycle development from comprehensive studies to designing and commissioning watercraft propulsion vehicles and onboard safety-critical systems.
Mining
Engineering for harsh and hazardous environments
Canada is a land of rich and vast resources that have improved the lives of Canadians for centuries. The building blocks of our society are dependent on the extraction and processing of our natural resources for transportation, construction, and manufacturing.
Harsh and hazardous environments demand special attention to ensure product longevity and preventing harm to the users. From sensors and cabling to machines running in hot, cold, humid, dusty, caustic or explosive locations, an expert team is required to manage projects where safety is critical.
Hedgehog adapts to the clients’ electrical and control needs during the project life-cycle including designing advanced safety-critical controls and holistically managing projects to achieve goals on a budget.
Oil & Gas
The Canadian oil and gas sector is a global entity that continues to fuel our way of life. Canada benefits from having the third-largest oil reserves in the world along with being the fourth largest oil exporter which has contributed to North America’s economic growth for decades.
Extracting, processing, and transporting energy is a delicate chain of events that demands long term view and efficiency within harsh and hazardous environments. Hedgehog creates innovative solutions using the most advanced technologies in order to achieve practical, sustainable, and safe outcomes.
Government
Proudly supporting local and international communities
The importance of responsible project management and risk-based decision making where the end-consumer is the general public cannot be understated. Hedgehog engages with the public sector whether it’s federal, provincial, municipal or First Nations. Our technical expertise provides opportunities for both major cities and remote communities to achieve their desired goals through data-driven decision making, research and development.
Hedgehog maintains close ties with Canada’s diverse indigenous groups and understands how to respectfully and culturally engage with the decision-makers within them.
