For more than 80 years, Voith has been building and modernizing hydropower plants in Central Asia and the region around the Caspian Sea. To date the technology group has realized more than 150 projects, with many more at the planning stage or about to be implemented. Overall, Voith hydropower technology provides more than 95 million people in the region with a reliable electricity supply.
Voith is underpinning its commitment to the development of electricity generation from environmentally friendly hydropower by supporting the international congress ‘Hydropower Caspian and Central Asia’ in Georgia. The company will be a gold sponsor of the event for the first time this year. The congress will be held on 14 and 15 February 2018 in the Georgian capital Tbilisi. Together with its subsidiary Kössler, Voith will showcase its entire range of products and services for large and small hydropower plants.
In Georgia, the host country for the congress, Voith has an installed capacity of 2206 MW in 13 facilities, making it one of the leading industrial partners for the design, construction, maintenance and upgrading of hydropower plants.
