Voith Hydro has been selected to provide electromechanical equipment for the 8.4-MW El Guineo small hydropower project in the Mexican state Guerrero.

The hydroelectric plant is being developed by the Corporacion Mexicana de Hidroelectricidad (Comexhidro), which previously contracted Voith to provide equipment for the 14-MW Chilatan and 30-MW El Gallo projects.

As per Voith’s most recent award from Comexhidro, the company will provide one horizontal Francis hydro turbine and generator, automation controls and fire protection systems.

HydroWorld.com reported in March that Voith had also been contracted to provide hydro turbines and other parts for a 22-MW project in Honduras.
