Power Generation Hydropower HOME » POWER GENERATION » HYDROPOWER VEO helps to harness the power of rivers In the field of hydropower, we offer both turnkey deliveries and modernisation projects for hydropower plants. Our turnkey deliveries cover turbines and generators for a variety of small to large-scale hydropower plants. Our modernisation projects, in turn, mainly consist of electrification and automation system upgrades. Our product range is extensive and compatible with all power generation solutions. It includes digital turbine governors and excitation systems designed for turbine and generator control. With our turbine governor (VEO-HPG) and renowned excitation expertise, we can adjust and modify each unit to ensure that your plant is tuned for optimal hydro-turbine efficiency. We can also take care of project management, from project supervision and consultation services to delivery. The consultation services include power plant audits, automation and electrification system models as well as feasibility studies, cost estimates and procurement programs to support our customers’ investment decisions. VEO’s strength lies in our profound knowledge and reliable, tailored solutions, which are efficiently implemented and integrated with existing systems. Close cooperation with our industry partners, combined with decades of experience in the field, allows us to meet our customers’ needs with the most advanced solutions on the hydropower market. Solutions Low-voltage switchgear VEDA is available in four main adaptations: VEDA MCC is designed to be fully compatible with the requirements set by the heavy industry with a nominal current capacity of up to 5000 A. VEDA Drives switchgear is optimised to fit both new instalments as well as retrofits of old equipment. VEDA Marine is based both on our own standardised and customised solutions and on marine-approved components to meet the requirements for marine and offshore applications. VEDA Hybrid combines traditional combustion engine technology with the benefits of energy storage.

References KONGSVINGER, NORWAY Hydropower is the major energy source in Norway. VEO is providing the solutions to use this energy as efficiently and safely as possible, while implementing these changes in a safe, quick and efficient way. This has led to VEO being the fourth largest contractor for plant modernisations in the hydro power field in Norway. On a Nordic scale, VEO has to date delivered over 250 hydro plant modernisations. KLIPPEN HYDROPOWER The customer requested a Siemens logic system for the plant. Apart from the new automation, VEO also upgraded the excitation, the turbine regulator and the medium-voltage protective relays. VEO has long experience from Siemens systems in industrial and power generation processes. The existing automation system was updated with a new S7-1500 Siemens automation logic system... A LONG-TERM PARTNERSHIP “VEO assured us that our project schedule would not suffer. They kept their promise. The new control panels were delivered to Juankoski according to plan,” Räsänen praises. The development continued. During 1995–1996 VEO offered Savon Voima even more comprehensive and integrated solutions – turbine generators with automation. The automation delivery for the Atro power plant in 1998 also included vacuum...
