Malaysia - Bintang and Hulu Terengganu
In 2014, ANDRITZ HYDRO successfully entered the Malaysian Compact Hydro market with two new orders.
In April 2014, ANDRITZ HYDRO received the order for supply, transportation, erection and commissioning of the complete electromechanical equipment for HPP Bintang from M/s Emrail Sdn. Bhd.,?one of Malaysia’s leading diversified conglomerates. HPP Bintang is located in the Malaysian state of Perak.
After the success of HPP Bintang, in June 2014, ANDRITZ HYDRO, in consortium with the Malaysian organization System Protection & Maintenance Sdn. Bhd.,?was awarded the order for HPP Hulu Terengganu by Tenaga Nasional Berhad (TNB), the largest electricity utility in Malaysia. HPP Hulu Terengganu is located north west of the Kenyir reservoir in the state of Terengganu.
The scope of supply of ANDRITZ HYDRO is based on the “water to wire” solution and comprises core equipment consisting of turbine, generator, governing system, spherical valves, SCADA and mechanical auxiliaries.
These two important projects mark the entry of Compact Hydro into the Malaysian hydropower market and open up the possibility for further growth.
