Vâlcea: „SP Topolog de la CHE Babeni, SP Bratia de la CHE Babeni, SP Bistrita de la CHE Babeni, SP Olanu de la CHE Ionesti, SP Oltet de la CHE Ipotesti, SP Poganu de la CHE Strejesti, SP Teslui de la CHE Arcesti, SP Teslui – Farcasele de la CHE Draganesti”

The subject of the contract is the implementation of works for the "Modernisation of pump stations behind the dams within the Rm. Valcea Hydro Power Plant: SP Topolog from CHE Babeni, SP Bratia from CHE Babeni, SP Bistrita from CHE Babeni, SP Olanu from CHE Ionesti, SP Oltet from CHE Ipotesti, SP Poganu from CHE Strejesti, SP Teslui from CHE Arcesti, SP Teslui – Farcasele from CHE Draganesti", which mainly include: - Structures related to the modernisation of hydromechanical equipment (grates, weirs, balustrades, etc.) - Structures related to the modernisation of electrical equipment (container foundations, diesel group, cables, etc.) - Electrical installations related to structures (cabinets, video monitoring system, anti-fracture, etc.) - Hydromechanical installations (electropump, refilling pipe, etc.). The pump stations behind the dams, which are part of the investment objective for which the procurement is initiated, were put into operation around the 1980s, equipped and built with equipment manufactured according to the technology of that time, these pumping stations being in operation even at the present moment. The pump stations behind the dams have the role of evacuating the waters resulting from the infiltrations from the accumulation lakes, as well as the rainwater from the surrounding area, returning at the same time a significant quantity of water recovered in the hydroelectric circuit of the facilities within SH Rm Valcea. Furthermore, a particularly important role is represented by the reduction of the risks of flooding of the human settlements and the agricultural surfaces in the vicinity. During the operation of the equipment, part of the pump stations behind the dams, from the time they were put into operation until the present, deficiencies in operation have been recorded, due to the moral and physical wear of the hydraulic, electrical, mechanical and automation equipment, and accentuated degradation of the construction elements of these pump stations. To all these deficiencies are added the incidents from two of the pumping stations, SP Topolog and SP Bistrita, stations which, following significant rainfall, were completely flooded, as a result of which both the construction part and the pumping and electrical installations suffered significant damage. Taking into account all the aspects regarding the precarious technical condition, major interventions are required, within modernisation works on all the hydraulic, electrical, mechanical and automation equipment from the pump stations behind the dams within SH Rm. Valcea: SP Topolog, SP Bratia, SP Bistrita, SP Olanu, SP Oltet, SP Poganu, SP Teslui, SP Teslui-Farcasele.
