Koncar delivers equipment to HPPs in Romania, New Zealand

This delivery comes on the back of the first system successfully commissioned at Unit 6 in 2019, Koncar said in its monthly newsletter on Thursday.

The delivered MCM system includes a cabinet with a processing unit and numerous peripherals, associated software, and a system for metering and analysis of partial discharges. The system enables precise measurement of vibrations, air gaps, and pressure inside the turbine.

Koncar said there are plans to extend the cooperation of the Electrical Engineering Institute with the Romanian customer with the aim of contracting the delivery of monitoring systems for units 1, 2, 3, and 4 at Stejaru HPP.

The institute has also successfully branched into a new market by delivering a transformer monitoring system - Koncar TMS to a customer in New Zealand. The project was carried out at Clyde Dam, the third-largest hydro power plant in New Zealand, located on the Clutha River.

The value of both deals was not disclosed.
