Water
Driving sustainable water management and infrastructure across the entire water cycle.
Water sits at the core of sustainable development and is fundamental to a thriving society. It is arguably one of the most critical elements to address as we catalyse the transition to a regenerative future. Our integrated water and environmental services have been applied to some of the largest water projects around the world and include natural resource management, land use and coastal management, irrigation services, and environmental planning and assessments.
Our expertise in water infrastructure and management is enhanced by long-standing associations with international development agencies, governments, and educational institutions. Our global capability has supported renewable energy production, climate-resilient solutions for flood and drought, integrated health programs, and clean water supply systems at a national scale.
Expertise
Water Infrastructure
SJ offers advanced, sustainable water solutions for evolving challenges like population growth and climate change, spanning desalination, infrastructure, treatment, and stormwater management. Integrated water infrastructure solutions are critical to ensuring clean water access and building resilient communities.
Water Resources and Irrigation
Population growth and climate change have posed new challenges for communities in water security and food production. Sustainable water resource management consulting and irrigation solutions are needed to safeguard communities from climate extremes while ensuring reliable water supply for agriculture. SJ delivers water management, sustainable irrigation and climate-smart design to address these growing threats to water security and food production.
Coastal Engineering and Management
Climate change, coastal development, and the need for ecological balance demand innovative coastal management strategies. SJ combines innovative engineering, advanced coastal modelling, and risk analysis to protect coastlines, infrastructure and communities. Our engineers and scientists have a deep understanding of coastal dynamics, applying an integrated coastal management approach to solve complex challenges that enhance resilience and long-term ecological health.
Dams and Hydropower
SMEC, an SJ company, is an internationally recognised Dams and Hydropower consultant with a heritage that spans over 75 years. The original Snowy Mountain Hydroelectric Scheme forms the backbone and history of our organisation. Since then, we have built an extensive portfolio of dam and hydropower projects, exporting our technical skill set across the world. Dam and hydropower solutions are increasingly important as the world transitions towards renewable energy as a way of ensuring water security and fostering sustainable development.
