Project Detail
5 MW, Run-of-River, commissioned 2015 Annual production of around 32 GWh, Net head is 44 m and discharge is 14.2 m3/s. The desilting basin is 17,5 m wide and 60 m long. 2 Francis turbines with a capacity of 2500 kW each.
Solution: SediCon re-designed the desanders and supplied two SediCon Sluicers with a combined capacity of 940 ton sediments per hour. The SediCon Sluicers discharges into the river downstream of the intake, via two manual operated gate blade valves.
