Environmental protection as part of the corporate philosophy
Responsible hydropower management
- Ensuring the ecological continuity of rivers: Installation of fish ladders and fish flow-systems and otter paths
- Site-adapted minimum water regulation
- Disposal of waste from floating debris
- Long-term protection of water as a habitat
- The introduction and application of an environmental management system at all locations was certified in accordance with DIN EN ISO 14001:2015
Economy meets ecology
- Successful and sustainable management of hydropower plants takes into account the ecological framework conditions and their social benefits
- High initial investments combined with the implementation of environmental protection measures stand in the way of a century’s worth of CO₂-free electricity generation
For the good of the environment
- Modern and virtually emission-free technology leaves a very low ecological footprint
- Optimal integration into the landscape conditions of small and medium-sized hydropower plants to protect water bodies and the landscape
- Support for species and aquatic biotope protection e.g. river regulation and thus preservation of existing bodies of water, deliberate prevention of invasive species from gaining access to protect fish populations
- Support for the UN Sustainable Development Goals
