Hydro power is the world’s largest source of renewable electricity, currently supplying 15 per cent of our electricity needs across the globe.
Pacific Hydro is active and energetic in developing hydro business opportunities, and today boasts 160MW of operating run-of-river hydro projects across Australia, Chile, Fiji and the Philippines.
With 500MW of projects planned over the next 5 years, hydro energy will power the majority of our company’s growth and allow us to play a significant role in the lucrative carbon trading market.
