Case Study: Toronto Hydro achieves faster, safer technician training with VR Vision

Toronto Hydro cuts technician training time by 30% with VR Vision

Toronto Hydro, a major electricity distributor serving Canada's largest city, partnered with VR Vision to address the challenge of training technicians for high-risk electrical work. Their goal was to reduce the time required for upskilling while safely replicating hazardous scenarios that are difficult to practice in real life, such as switchgear operations and underground vault work.

VR Vision provided a comprehensive VR training solution using Quest headsets and their proprietary Vision Portal platform. The solution featured realistic CGI environments, multiplayer functionality, and various training modes. This implementation by VR Vision resulted in a 30% reduction in time-to-train for technicians, the complete elimination of real-world training risks, and the scalable training of hundreds of employees, setting a new benchmark for safety and efficiency.
