We have considerable experience in both data collection to assess the feasibility of proposed Hydro-Power sites and in the monitoring to ensure compliance at established sites. Many of these projects have been based in Scotland, but we have also undertaken work on Hydro-Power projects in the Lake and Peak Districts, North Wales and the South-West.

Our position as sole supplier for Hydrometric monitoring on a framework with SSE, as well as work that we have undertaken at key sites for Scottish Power and RWE Npower underlines our track record in this area.

The services that we provide include:

Spot flow gauging programmes
Installation of continuous flow monitoring equipment
Temporary installation of equipment for short term data collection
Derivation and validation of site specific flow duration curves
Reporting to meet SEPA CAR Licence or EA Requirements
Flood Risk or Consequence Assessment to meet NPPF/ TAN15/ SPP7
Fish Passage design and uncertainty analysis
