Brugherio Hydroelectric Power Plant
This is a low-jump plant capable
of using a maximum flow rate of 15,000 liters per second on a drop of 3.1
meters created by an existing traverse. The electromechanical unit consists of
a Kaplan bulb turbine with a completely submerged generator. The plant is part
of a highly urbanized framework near major communication routes, but this does
not prevent the possibility of generating clean and renewable energy in this context
too.The work involved the Firm in all
phases executive design and of the direction and accounting of the works.
Particular attention was paid to the study of architectural elements and
environmental insertion; same care also in the choice of optimal solutions as
regards mitigation with a specific study of green.
