Hydropower Expertise
Norway is the world's fifth largest hydropower producer and the only industrialized nation meeting its domestic electricity demand almost exclusively through hydropower. Electricity from hydropower was the key factor in transforming Norway from one of the poorest countries of Europe about a century ago into the industrialized and wealthy nation of today.
SN Power draws its expertise from this long-tradition of hydropower in Norway. Its core staff includes experienced Norwegian hydropower engineers as well as staff with broad international backgrounds in energy, infrastructure, manufacturing industries and corporate finance. The business is also underpinned by our owners’ deep knowledge of hydropower development and risk capital investment.
SN Power was established in 2002 as a Norwegian limited company owned by Statkraft and Norfund. SN Power is headquartered in Oslo, Norway.
