A challenging rehabilitation project starts for HPP in Belgium.
It consists of the refurbishment of two of the three units of 4 MW each.
The first step is a full-scale 3D scan of the power plant.
Below the pictures compared with their 3D result.
Design of the two horizontal Francis turbines can now start.
Successful FAT (Factory Acceptance Test) for an alternator of 300 rpm & 1.7 MVA for an horizontal Kaplan turbine.
