We are very glad to add up to our prestigious clients the big hydroelectric power plant of Alqueva, on the Gaudiana river, in Portugal. This is one of the biggest plant in Portugal. Their goal is to produce 7000 MW by 2020. We manufactured a set of AISI 316L and rubber bearings starting from a specific drawing.
Up to now our bearings can be found in different plants throughout Europe: the nuclear power plant of Vandellos and Almaraz (Spain), the Geothermal ENEL plant of Larderello (Italy), the nuclear power plant of Leibstadt (Switzerland), the generating station of Sainte Catherine in Quebec (Canada).
