French manufacturer Alstom has been selected to refit the Tysso 2 hydro plant for Statkraft in Norway.
As per the contract, Alstom will be responsible for the supply, installation and commissioning of control systems, station transformers, local distribution systems, circuit breakers and 72kV cabling for the site’s two generators.

This project endorses our strategy to support customers with a full services and retrofit offering to secure operational reliability and to optimise their asset management throughout the plant’s lifespan.”
