HGT have completed infrastructure & construction projects all over the world. We can bring all of that experience to the table, which helps to ensure a successful outcome.
HGT strive to undertake projects that are profitable and economically sound and have economic benefits for the country. But we also look for ptojects that have a humanitarian benefit for the people in the project country.
HGT can supply in-house power generation solutions using thermal power plants that are not only clean and efficient, producing almost 'Zero emmissions'. Our technology is at work in many places in Africa.
We strive to improve the area for the locals weherever we run a project. Improvement in local facilities and infrastructure strenghthens the bond between HGT and the local community.
We recognise that large infrastructure projects pose big challenges and with each new project, comes the social responsibility to be a functional partner in the community in which we are operating. We recognise that sustainable practices are critical to corporate success.
People are part of the resource supply chain, supplying the social license to operate in a community. The concept of social license evolved from the more established notion of Corporate Social Responsibility and is based on the idea that companies need not only government permission [or permits] but also “social permission” to conduct their business.
While infrastructure projects are frequently expected to bring benefits to a community — such as infrastructure improvements, education, and job opportunities — we collaborate with legitimate structures within the community to assess the options best suited to their livelihoods. When expectations aren’t met, it can often be traced back to a lack of respect of local customs and values, collaboration within established structures within the community and communication with a community.
