On the hydro-electric power stations of Volzhsko-kamskogo of cascade jointly with the European bank of reconstruction and development (EBRD) the project of reconstruction of the hydro-electric power stations will be realized to a total value of a 6,7 milliard of roubles. In a project 6 participate hydroelectric power PLANT, on each of which it is planned to replace on one  to the hydro-turbine – on more modern, answering ecological requirements: the construction of driving wheel fully eliminates the hit of lube oil in water.At every station
the cost of project is different: for example, in the branch of OAO «Rusgidro»-« Saratov hydroelectric power PLANT» replacement of turbine on ecologically safe on a hydroelectric generator with the station number 8 a cost makes approximately 500 million roubles. Besides the observance of ecological norms
replacement of turbine pursues  another purpose – increasing power. After realization of project (in 2012) there is power of hydroelectric generator 8 on SARGES must be increased on 6 Mvt (from 60 to 66 Mvt). «Not all goes smoothly, – explained to the portal EnergyLand.info main engineer by Saratov hydroelectric power PLANT
Andrey Yurin. – It is necessary to co-ordinate the great number of aspects, both technological and economic. However at successful completion of project serious prospects are opened for a further fruitful and reliable collaboration».v this moment is complete
first stage of competitive procedures on the selection of participants of competition on realization of ecological project: it is sufferet from 6 participants of competition 4 -  two foreign companies («ALSTOM France» and   «VOITH SIEMENS Hydro Power Generation») and two Russian (OAO «Tyazhmash» and OAO «Power machines»). Who
will become a general contractor  on development of project, execution, delivery and replacement of hydro-turbine «turnkey», it will be known on results the opened competition which it is planned to conduct to the end of II quarter.  A process causes intent attention outside
both partners of project of reconstruction – and OAO «Rusgidro», and EBRD. In Rusgidro  a project is attributed to
there are ecological risks, therefore specialists of bank, before to decide on delivery of credit in 2006,  conducted a careful audit on all six hydroelectric power PLANT.
