Sustainability

Hydro Tasmania is committed to creating a sustainable future by meeting current needs without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their requirements.

We take a whole of business approach to sustainability with the Sustainability Policy implemented broadly throughout the organisation's environmental, social and financial management systems.

We assess and publicly report our sustainability performance against principles of sustainability and benchmark against industry best practice.  Our report is independently assessed using the AA1000 Assurance Standard (AA1000AS).

Hydro Tasmania has also taken a lead role in the development of the International Hydropower Association (IHA) Sustainability Guidelines, the IHA Sustainability Assessment Protocol and the website for IHA Sustainable Hydropower.
