Hydro/Renewables

ENVISION provides…

Bespoke Solutions.

Providing comprehensive designs and 3D scanning services for large-scale hydroelectric schemes and the renewables sector. With a deep understanding of the unique challenges these environments present, we work closely with clients to deliver precise, fully substantiated engineering solutions. From remote highland sites to complex refurbishment projects, our integrated design and scanning capability adds real value at every stage — reducing risk, eliminating costly errors and giving your project a solid foundation from the very first step.


Hydro Schemes

We provide comprehensive engineering and design services to hydroelectric schemes across the sector, supporting on-going maintenance, refurbishment or replacement of existing structures. From initial concept through to fully validated design packages, our team delivers practical, precise and compliant solutions tailored to the unique demands of hydro scheme environments.


Refurbishment

Ageing infrastructure presents unique challenges — often with little or no accurate documentation to work from. We specialise in designing replacement and refurbishment structures for existing hydro schemes, working closely with project teams to deliver solutions that integrate seamlessly with existing plant and meet all current codes and standards.


Lifting Gantries

We design bespoke temporary and permanent lifting gantries and associated lifting equipment for hydro scheme applications, where safe and reliable access to plant and equipment is critical. Every design is fully substantiated and compliant with the relevant lifting equipment standards, giving operators the confidence that their equipment is safe, fit for purpose and built to last.


Stoplogs & Gates

We design stoplogs, gates and bulkhead plates that meet the demanding structural and operational requirements of water control applications. Whether designing new installations or providing replacement solutions for ageing infrastructure, every design is rigorously calculated, compliant with the relevant codes and standards, and detailed for straightforward fabrication and installation.


PUWER

Safe access to plant and equipment is a critical consideration in any renewables scheme. We design access ladders, walkways and guarding solutions that are fully compliant with the Provision and Use of Work Equipment Regulations (PUWER), ensuring your facility meets its legal obligations and your personnel can work safely and confidently at every level of the installation.


3D Scanning

In an industry where old drawings are often inaccurate, incomplete or simply no longer exist, our 3D laser scanning service is invaluable. Using our 3D laser scanners, we capture remote sites and ageing plant with pinpoint accuracy — whether deep in the Highlands or within the confined spaces of a turbine hall. Once scanned, a digital twin allows your team to interrogate the site remotely from their desktop, reducing repeated site visits, cutting travel costs and making a tangible contribution to your Net Zero ambitions.
