Enhancing the land around our renewable energy sites: Båthusströmmen hydropower plant

What’s a Rich Text element?

The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.

Static and dynamic content editing

A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!

How to customize formatting for each rich text

Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system.

We have recently enabled several enhancements to the land surrounding Båthusströmmen hydropower plant located along the banks of the Dalälven river. As a conscientious community member and business that owns c.600 acres of rural land around Sweden, we strive to be good stewards of the land and give back to the local community when possible.

Creating a community space

The recent improvements focused on a beach adjacent to the plant that provided access to the river powering our hydro plant. We invested funds to develop this area into a recreational space for community members to enjoy.

Developments include:

  • Construction of a large wooden deck platform with an attached coffee table overlooking the river. This provides an ideal spot for people to relax next to the river and enjoy the views
  • Installation of a high-quality BBQ area with commercial grade stainless steel grills. This enables people to hold barbecues and cookouts by the river
  • Seeding of lush grass in previously barren areas of the land, increasing the usable green space
  • Creation of designated parking spots for boats, along with a new wide gravel ramp directly into the river, facilitating easy launching of small watercraft

The additions upgraded an area of land into a beautiful recreational spot that harmonises with the natural scenic views. Community members have already begun flocking to the space to enjoy the upgrades facilitated by Downing’s investments.

Creating positive change and relationships

The recreational area enhances community members’ quality of life, while also driving increased goodwill and positive relationships between Downing and neighbourhoods near the plant. This demonstrates a real-world example of our commitment to generating renewable energy, environmental stewardship and corporate social responsibility.
