Hydropower construction · Tirana, since 2019

From the river to the turbine, we build it.

A 100% Albanian-owned construction company. We build the civil works of hydropower plants, from the water intake to the powerhouse, as well as residential and industrial buildings.

How a hydropower plant is built

Six phases of works, one team.

The civil works of a diversion hydropower plant, in the order they happen on site.

River diversion and intake

We temporarily divert the river and build the weir, the gates and the desilting basin, so the water enters the system clean.

Headrace channel and tunnel

Concrete channels, pipes and galleries that carry the water on a gentle slope, without losses, to the forebay.

Forebay

A concrete basin that calms the water before the drop, with trash racks, a spillway and the penstock inlet.

Penstock

Slope excavation, the pipe bedding, anchor blocks and supports.

Powerhouse

The turbine foundations, the building structure and the concrete around the units.

Tailrace, roads and grid link

The tailrace back to the river, service roads, the substation platform and electrical installations.

Calculator

How much energy does a plant produce?

Move the flow and the head: the power comes from the same formula used in every feasibility study.

P = ρ · g · Q · H · η

Power3,04MW
Annual output12,0GWh
Enough for about4 800homes

Rough estimate: 45% capacity factor and 2,500 kWh per home per year. For a real project the figures come from the hydrological study.

Beyond energy

We also build housing and industry.

Hydropower plants

Civil structures, foundations and supporting infrastructure for hydropower plants, to technical and environmental standards.

Residential buildings

From single houses to residential complexes: we oversee every phase, with quality workmanship and to current codes.

Industrial buildings

Factories, warehouses and production halls, built for structural strength, workplace safety and long-term use.

How we work

Four principles on every site.

Quality

We build to the highest engineering standards.

Integrity

Transparency and trust guide every project.

Innovation

Modern solutions for complex challenges.

Reliability

We deliver safely, efficiently and on time.
