Kleinschmidt has been a driving force in the advancement of hydropower for nearly six decades, actively engaging with leading industry associations to help shape the future of renewable energy. Our team members serve in leadership and advisory roles within the National Hydropower Association, Ontario Waterpower Association, and other key organizations, contributing to advocacy efforts, public education, and the development of best practices. We regularly collaborate on initiatives that elevate the voice of the hydropower community, such as industry-wide surveys, reports, and public affairs campaigns that promote innovation, transparency, and equity within the sector.

Through strategic partnerships and thought leadership, we support research and policy development that advances technologies like pumped storage hydropower and low-impact generation. Our team frequently participates in industry forums, technical committees, and working groups, contributing expertise that helps inform regulatory decisions, modernize infrastructure, and expand clean energy capacity across North America. By staying actively involved, we ensure that hydropower remains a reliable, sustainable, and forward-thinking part of our shared energy future.
