Located in Badulla District, UVA Province in Sri Lanka, This is the latest addition to our portfolio of projects in year 2017.It is just downstream of Loggal oya phase 2 project owned by Parent Company. The project involved constructing a head race channel in a very high gradient land (45 degree) and also includes an aqua-duct section which is app. 16m above ground level. 3 units of Francis turbines (made in China) is used to generate a combined electrical power output of 1,600kW.
This project is a clear example of value engineering expertise of our engineering team. The total construction cost (2016-2017) was USD 2.2Mn, reflecting a per MW cost of USD 1.44Mn, being lowest during the sated period in Sri Lanka for a hydro plant of this scale.
