GGRiver Power LLC

Size isn’t everything when it comes to hydropower

Our team works on hydropower projects of all sizes – and we measure projects based on their impact on the communities they serve. The legacy a project leaves behind is more important than size.

As a leading global hydropower consultant, GGRiver Power LLC provides high-quality assistance with all elements of small hydropower project development, from conceptual project design and cost estimating to preparation of final design to construction management services. We are well-versed in the regulatory and agency requirements for permitting, approvals, and construction of small hydropower plants.

This experience also translates into time- and cost-saving solutions for our clients. Understanding the economic factors associated with small hydropower plants, we can provide cost-effective design solutions as well as knowledge in financing and procurement.

From identifying and selecting generating equipment to evaluating transmission and interconnection requirements, from calculating expected energy and developing conceptual generating plant configurations to preparing cost estimates, our engineers are familiar with all aspects of small hydropower development.

Our team leverages our long-standing, sustained position in the industry to provide hydropower owners and developers with leadership in the evaluation of their facilities and help them make decisions to harness energy resources to power communities.

Going small shouldn't break the bank

We understand and appreciate the critical dependence on cost-effective equipment, standardized design, and straightforward construction procedures to make small hydropower efficient and affordable. Our experts have relationships with small hydro manufacturers that help customize assets so our clients’ projects are functional and energy efficient.

We have worked extensively on small hydro facilities and own and operate two small hydro sites, which keeps us at the forefront of technology and licensing expertise.

Efficiently utilizing natural water resources to generate electricity with low investment and operating costs.
