Due to a high average annual precipitation and hilly terrain, Lao PDR has a theoretical hydropower potential of 26.5 GW, which makes the country one the richest in south-east Asia in terms of hydropower resources.
Gamesa Electric will help on the development of this new 24 MW project with the supply of three 8 MW Gamesa Electric synchronous hydro generators.
This is not our first collaboration with this client. We have worked together previously in 16 previous hydropower projects in 10 countries, for a total supplied of 480 MW together.
