Hydro Environmental & Social Impact Assessment

High Quality ESIA services

Reducing the impacts of hydropower projects through comprehensive, participatory and sustainable solutions

An Environmental & Social Impact Assessment (ESIA) is a key step in every project for evaluating, predicting and addressing potential environmental and social impacts as well as regulatory constraints of a proposed hydropower project at an early stage. Performing an ESIA is critical for developing any project in order to minimize or avoid adverse environmental and social effects.

AFRY helps implement permitting strategies, development schedules, as well as mitigation and management plans. That way, we ensure that our clients comply with applicable environmental, social and ethical standards.
