Hydroelectric

We are experienced in the unique challenges of hydroelectric sites, using ecologically sound solutions to stabilize essential infrastructure and access roads.

Sustaining the Flow

Hydroelectric sites are often located in steep, rocky, and remote areas. Our team provides a range of geohazard solutions for these facilities—including damage remediation for powerhouses and penstocks, which extend hundreds or thousands of feet upslope—and ensures the safe operation of critical access roads.

We employ ecologically sound techniques to address the most challenging conditions of hydro facility projects. From initial construction to ongoing maintenance and inspection, GRW offers comprehensive solutions for geohazards associated with hydroelectric projects.
