Lahmeyer International - Business Units

Water is the source of all life. A sensitive element, whose use throughout the world demands responsible planning. Based on the expertise of our specialists in the technical and engineering areas, as well as the socio-economic, financial and environmental components of various projects, Lahmeyer International offers a multidisciplinary approach to different phases and types of projects.

The development of hydropower as well as the planning and construction of schemes for water supply and waste water require integrative and multi-disciplinary engineering consultancy: In its Hydropower and Water Resources Division, Lahmeyer International combines these services which are necessary for projects related to hydraulic structures and water resources management.

The know-how and expertise of our specialists are based on extensive experience gained during implementation of major projects throughout the world over several decades. In carrying out such development studies, especially in the case of complex hydropower projects, the close coordination of multi-disciplinary tasks involving technical, environmental, socio-economic, institutional and financial components is absolutely essential. A further important objective applied to all project developments is the sustainable utilisation of the natural resources land and water.
