PROJECT:

Samoa Hydro Developments.

MTL ROLE:

MTL designed the penstocks, intake reservoir chamber and power house structures, and associated structures for the Samoa hydro power schemes at the 0.6MW Fausaga-Tafitoala (3.5km penstock) and 0.2MW Faleata Hydro Power Stations.

PROJECT OUTCOME:

Unique design solutions were found by working closely with the Constructor to overcome constraints due to the terrain and property boundaries. The projects were successfully delivered in 2018, with all power stations entering service supplying greater generation output than required.
