Fortum Service has signed a contract for a project for increasing dam
safety on the Daugava River in Latvia. The work has been ordered by
Latvia’s state-owned power company Latvenergo, and the contract is a
continuation of several years of consulting services.
The contract includes supervising the planning and construction work of
reserve spillways in the Plavinas hydropower plant. The work will be
performed in cooperation with the Swiss consulting firm
Electrowatt-Ekono. The consultation work will be lead by Fortum
Service. The work will continue until 2011, and consultation during the
period of guarantee will last until 2013.
The project is to begin at the turn of the year.
