Small Hydropower

Climate change puts pressure on managing power in a way that is sustainable for generations to come. One option is to invest in small hydropower and to capitalise on river resources in a decentralised manner. The contribution of small hydropower to worldwide electrical capacity is estimated to be on a similar scale as other renewable energy sources.

Small hydropower schemes are often underestimated because of their size; but, in fact, they need the same attention as large hydropower schemes.

As a result, sound engineering and specific know-how is vital for a well-designed and successful project.

To rely on Pöyry means to benefit from top class and global hydropower know-how from one source.
Doing things right comes from expertise - and expertise is what we are known for.
