Eidsiva Energi AS is a Norwegian energy company that develops renewable projects in various sectors, including small hydro. The company is committed to producing sustainable and renewable energy while also contributing to the development of the local communities where they operate. Eidsiva Energi AS is a subsidiary of Eidsiva Vannkraft AS, which is a leading producer of hydroelectric power in Norway.

Small hydro is one of the sectors in which Eidsiva Energi AS focuses on. Small hydro refers to the production of electricity from small-scale hydroelectric power plants. These plants typically have a capacity of less than 10 megawatts and are often located in rural areas. Small hydro is an important source of renewable energy, as it produces electricity without emitting greenhouse gases or other pollutants.

Eidsiva Energi AS has several small hydro projects in Norway. These projects are located in various parts of the country, including Oppland, Hedmark, and Buskerud. The company's small hydro projects are designed to harness the power of local rivers and streams to produce electricity. The projects are typically located near existing dams or waterfalls, which provide the necessary water flow to generate electricity.

One of Eidsiva Energi AS's small hydro projects is the Vangsmjøsa power plant. This plant is located in Vang municipality in Oppland county and has a capacity of 6.7 megawatts. The Vangsmjøsa power plant generates electricity by utilizing the water flow from the Vangsmjøsa lake. The power plant is connected to the national grid, and the electricity it produces is used to power homes and businesses in the surrounding area.

Another small hydro project developed by Eidsiva Energi AS is the Sjølisæter power plant. This plant is located in Nord-Fron municipality in Oppland county and has a capacity of 2.5 megawatts. The Sjølisæter power plant generates electricity by utilizing the water flow from the Sjølisæter waterfall. The electricity produced by the power plant is used to power homes and businesses in the surrounding area.

Eidsiva Energi AS's small hydro projects are not only important sources of renewable energy but also contribute to the development of the local communities where they operate. The company works closely with local authorities and stakeholders to ensure that its projects are developed in a sustainable and responsible manner. Eidsiva Energi AS also provides employment opportunities and supports local businesses in the areas where it operates.

In addition to its small hydro projects, Eidsiva Energi AS is also involved in other renewable energy sectors, including wind and solar. The company has several wind farms in Norway, including the Kvitvola wind farm in Oppland county. This wind farm has a capacity of 70 megawatts and generates enough electricity to power approximately 25,000 homes. Eidsiva Energi AS also has several solar projects in Norway, including the Skreia solar park in Oppland county. This solar park has a capacity of 4.3 megawatts and generates enough electricity to power approximately 1,300 homes.

Eidsiva Energi AS is committed to producing sustainable and renewable energy while also contributing to the development of the local communities where they operate. The company's small hydro projects are an important source of renewable energy and contribute to the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions. Eidsiva Energi AS's commitment to sustainability and responsible development makes it a leader in the renewable energy sector in Norway.
