En 1846, la ville de Qu\u00e9bec – alors dirig\u00e9e par le maire George Okill Stuart \u2013 obtient l\u2019autorisation du gouvernement pour \u00e9tablir un r\u00e9seau de distribution de gaz qui assure un \u00e9clairage efficace des rues. La Quebec Gas Company<\/em> est cr\u00e9\u00e9e \u00e0 cette fin peu apr\u00e8s et incorpor\u00e9e en mai 1849. Le nouveau syst\u00e8me d\u2019\u00e9clairage au gaz des rues est inaugur\u00e9 le 1er<\/sup> novembre suivant.<\/p>\n

La Compagnie poursuit ses op\u00e9rations jusqu\u2019en 1909, alors qu\u2019elle est absorb\u00e9e par la Quebec Railway, Light, Heat and Power Company<\/em>.<\/p>\n
