Hydropower

DTA is a national leader in hydroelectric services with over 220 professional engineers, scientists and regulatory specialists, and offices in eight locations. Our purpose is to increase the value of our clients’ assets by providing high-quality, specialized consulting services; we are especially proud of our long-term client relationships. The key to our success is our dedicated, professional employees who bring to each project unmatched commitment and expertise.

We know of no other consulting firm that can match DTA’s combination of in-depth expertise and real-world experience, in the full range of hydropower-related disciplines. DTA is thoroughly involved with the nation’s hydropower industry and keenly aware of significant regional and national developments, activities, politics, and perspectives affecting the hydropower industry in today’s dynamic environment. This involvement in the industry at every level does far more than keep DTA staff current on the issues; it gives us a unique insight into the future of FERC relicensing, and the agendas and strategic initiatives of the major environmental and political organizations affecting hydropower operations and licensing.

From the start, the DTA organization has viewed support of our clients in the hydropower field to be a three-legged stool: engineering; regulatory; and environmental science, and that a consultant needed to have solid, senior professional expertise in all three disciplines in order to truly be able to serve our hydropower clients in today’s world. DTA exemplifies this philosophy with our staff of senior professionals and support personnel.
