Last week, we visited the Završnica reservoir in Slovenia with three engineers from the UK. The visit was hosted by Savske Elektrarne Ljubljana d.o.o. In 2018 Dyrhoff supplied four 1.0m high and 7.3m wide Obermeyer spillway gates that were installed on the existing dam spillway.

It is 25 years since we supplied this 2.15m high, 22.0m wide Obermeyer spillway gate to a privately-owned small hydropower project on the River Günz in Günzburg, Germany. That is 25 years of continuous operation and power generation for a satisfied owner.
