Assignment text
The power station is located near mountain farms and utilises a drop of approx. 58 metres in Nørdre Skålbekken [Skål Creek]. This creek/river runs from Skåltjønna and further to Sikkilsdalsåa. The intake basin is approx. 200 m3, and the power station can therefore be considered a so-called run-of-river power station. A separate system has been established for control and regulation of consumption.
The goals of the project are to have a power station solution that gives:
stable power supply based on the owner's need for power
low annual operating costs/maintenance costs
equipment/components of high quality that have long shelf-life.
To realise the project equipment must be procured for the facility, specified in three tender requests. This contest concerns electromechanical delivery consisting of water turbine, generator, regulator and control system. See the separate contest for system configuration and operation and separate contest for battery for load balancing/stabilisation of grid.
