Power Generation, Networks and Storage

The first public art museum in Australia to achieve a 6-star Green Star design rating. WSP worked with Atelier Ten and the Art Gallery of New South Wales during the design phase to ensure ecologically sustainable design outcomes were achieved.

High-voltage transmission line bringing hydropower-generated electricity from Canada to New York City is the largest underground project of its kind ever attempted in North America.

Prior to this project, residents of Harrington Harbour, a village in the province of Quebec, Canada, never had access to proper drinking water.

Water and power plants are crucial to serving the growing populations of the Middle East. WSP’s environmental and energy experts are leading the way in achieving regulatory compliance for this important sector.

An Integrated Resource Recovery (IRR) strategy was developed for the Courtice Water Pollution Control Plant and was a first step towards the sustainability of this 68.2 MLD plant. The study searched for technical solutions to derive value from the plant’s waste and to minimize its inputs. The results not only brought focus to the Region, which lead to the IRR option to pursue further into the design and implementation phase, but also immediate improvements with the implementation of short-term solutions.

The objective of the National Department of Tourism of South Africa was to reduce Robben Island’s reliance on diesel generators as a power source. 

Ingenious engineering by WSP has put the tallest City of London tower on the road to net zero

123 floors with premium grade-A offices, six-star hotel, observation deck, and extensive retail and recreational facilities.

The Seoul Energy Dream Centre was an innovative partnership, between Seoul city government and Germany's Fraunhofer Society, to develop Korea's first net-zero energy building.

A large electricity transmission project for importing power from a substation to meet urgent needs in northwest Cambodia. 

We pioneered the conversion of a power plant from 100% coal-fired to 100% biofuel, on a scale that had never been attempted before. This project has become an exemplar for the world.

WSP supported the Norwegian power company NTE Energi AS and contractor Skanska Norge AS in building the Storåselva power plant, which utilized the 124-metre-high waterfall in the Storåselva river.
