New 10 MW supply contract for Håfoss Hydro power plant
We have been awarded the supply of two synchronous generators for Håfoss Hydropower plant, located in Fjæra, municipality of Erde in Vestland county, Norway.
We will supply one 3.3 MW and one 6.6 MW synchronous generators for a total installed power of 10 MW for this long-awaited project for the region. Fjæra has been working for several years on this plant but lacked a way to transport the power out from the town. After solving this issue, the construction of this plant started last spring.
The plant will be commissioned in autumn 2021 and will provide 33 GWh a year, enough for the electric consumption of 1,500 households with electricity, and it will also boost the local activities.
This is our 7th project for this client in Norway, with a total of 48 MW installed in the country.
