Services for hydropower plants

Retrofit of hydropower plants

Continue using existing equipment where it makes sense and modernize where availability, operation or economic performance require it.

Typical reasons for retrofit

  • Obsolete equipmentReplace control systems, contactors or operator devices that can no longer be maintained.
  • Upgrading an existing plantIntegrate new components cleanly into the existing generating and field equipment.
  • Operational reliabilityStructure alarms, operating modes and interfaces transparently.

Modernization with the existing plant in mind

A retrofit does not automatically require replacing the entire control cabinet or the complete machine. The key question is which components can sensibly remain in service from a technical perspective.

We combine site assessment, conversion planning and commissioning into one continuous concept.

Practical implementation

Modernize step by step with full traceability

Every retrofit starts with the actual condition: which components are reliable, which interfaces are missing and which operating objectives matter?

  • Existing plant: Record controls, power equipment, sensors and hydraulics.
  • Concept: Justify the renewal scope and continued use of equipment.
  • Implementation: Deliver the cabinet, software and documentation as a coordinated package.
