Hydro potential

The international hydro community had a constructive discussion at Hydro exhibition about the multipurpose of hydropower, powerplant upgrading, dams and pumped storage. The programme theme was set to focus mainly on hydro potential and development opportunities as well as discussion about environmental and social impact.

Reliable solutions world-wide

Decades of hands-on experience operating at the forefront of this highly specialized and challenging field enable EFLA to provide clients with a fully comprehensive one-stop range of services and solutions.

The ever changing and challenging environmental condition in Iceland, such as glacial rivers, sedimentations, floods due to volcanic eruptions, supercooled water and anchor ice formation, complex and varying geological conditions as well as very high seismic loads, has given the EFLA hydropower team the opportunity and vast experience to plan and design power plants.

Despite these harsh conditions, EFLA strives to find safe and cost effective solutions for all projects and design pertinent structures in harmony with nature minimizing construction and operational risk.
