Verkís’ experts have substantial experience of working with micro power plants and provide consultation at all stages of the process.
In recent years, many landowners in Iceland have wondered whether it is possible and profitable to harness rivers and streams on their lands.
Request a consultationSome want to ensure that they have electricity if the electricity system fails, others want to lower the electricity bill, and then some want to earn money by selling electricity into the system.
Even if a river or stream is present, the efficiency of harnessing the flow varies. Before embarking on a costly project, it is therefore wise to assess feasibility. It is necessary to estimate the flow of the river, assess the height of the drop, explore connection possibilities, and assess the environmental impact.
In order to build a micro power plant, you have to go through a certain process in the system that can be complicated if you’re not familiar with it. This is where Verkís’ experts come in and can handle all preparatory research, preliminary studies, and initial design, assessment obligation inquiry and rentals, operation, and installation of measuring equipment.
We have vast experience regarding micro power plants and guarantee the best possible outcome for the buyer.

Verkís provides comprehensive services for micro power plants, from feasibility studies and design to implementation, operation, and asset management. Our specialists help create resilient and sustainable local energy solutions that enhance energy security, operational efficiency, and long-term value.
We perform initial site inspections and feasibility assessments to evaluate resource potential, technical requirements, and project viability, supporting the successful development of micro power generation projects.
We perform flow measurements, geological and mineral surveys, and watershed analyses to evaluate site conditions, resource availability, and the feasibility of micro power generation projects.
We provide measuring equipment and associated services for flow monitoring, environmental studies, and resource assessments, helping clients obtain accurate data for the planning and development of micro power projects.
We create preliminary designs for micro power plants, covering structures, equipment, and generation capacity, helping clients evaluate technical feasibility, performance, and development opportunities.
We conduct environmental impact assessment screening studies to identify potential environmental effects and determine whether a full environmental impact assessment is required for a proposed micro power project.
We develop designs for civil works and power plant systems and support the procurement of equipment, helping ensure optimal performance, quality, and value throughout the project lifecycle.
We assist with grid connection studies, technical requirements, and coordination with distribution utilities to ensure reliable, compliant, and cost-effective integration of micro power generation facilities.
We provide technical solutions and operational support to ensure seamless integration of micro power plants with the owner’s facilities, systems, and operational processes, enabling reliable and efficient energy production.
We provide on-site support, technical supervision, and commissioning services during construction to help ensure safe implementation, reliable performance, and a smooth transition to operation of micro power plants.
We provide ongoing technical and operational support for micro power plants, helping clients optimise performance, address operational challenges, and ensure safe, reliable, and efficient energy production over the long term.
We inspect structures, mechanical and electrical equipment, and supporting infrastructure to evaluate condition, prioritise renewal measures, and help ensure the safe, efficient, and sustainable operation of micro power plants.
