The Course of Purchasing Equipment
and Services for Execution - Lot A1
The tender procedure and the placing of
the order for execution of preparatory
works were completed on 22 November

with the Gradis NG / GIZ Gradis consortium.
Blanca HPP
(Blanca Hydropower Plant)
Three years after commencing the construction
of the first hydropower plant
on Lower Sava River is the planned
start of construction of Blanca HPP.
Blanca HPP is a combined run-of river
storage hydropower plant featuring
Kaplan turbines with a total spilling capacity
of 500 m 3 /s, five spillways with a total
capacity of approximately 3,500 m 3 /s and
an average annual output of 160 GWh.
Blanca HPP Basic Information
Rated flow 500 m 3 /s
Head
10.70 m
Rated output
42.5 MW
Average annual production 160 GWh
Useful reservoir volume 1,390,000 m 3
Average annual flow 243 m 3 /s
Estimated value
of investment in
power generation SIT 13.5 billion
Estimated value of
infrastructure investments
(Republic of Slovenia
as the investor) SIT 4.5 billion
The power station will be basically unmanned.
It will be managed by the
chain’s control center.
Natural and
Cultural Heritage Protection
In planning the Blanca HPP structures
and dam we will keep the intrusions
into locations, areas and objects of natural
value and cultural heritage to a
minimum, as stated in the overall plan
of construction of the Lower Sava River
hydropower plants. The appropriate departments
for the protection of natural
treasures and cultural heritage will be
included in the planning of structures,
which ensure a good state of waters
and water-dependent ecosystems to
the largest possible extent, while at the
same time enabling the satisfaction of
economic, social and other human
needs for water by implementing a sustainable
use of nature’s wealth. The
characteristic and most valuable parts
of natural and cultural value will be documented
in their current condition before
any operations take place; any intrusions
in these parts will only be allowed
upon obtaining the approval of
the competent department for the protection
of natural and cultural heritage.
Project Status
In 2002 we have been preparing project
tasks for the execution of the idea
project and cooperating in concessionaire’s
preparatory studies.
Lower Sava River Hydropower
Stations Project Investment Value for
2002
A total of SIT 220,545,000 was invested
as part of the Lower Sava River
Hydropower Stations Project in 2002.
Telecommunications
Network
The analyses of needs for connectedness
and for exchange of information
as an indispensable tool for successful
performance in a deregulated market
show that by establishing our own telecommunication
network we are also
presented with new options of marketing
certain telecommunication services
and that by utilizing the previously installed
telecommunication systems in
companies within HSE Group relatively
low infrastructure and equipment investments
are required.
Purpose of the Project
The project’s purpose is to provide telecommunication
services of high quality,
speed, reliability and sufficient capacity,
which can be upgraded and
thereby satisfy the needs of:
• The management system of the HSE
balance group and production
• Business informatics
• The measurements and counter status
calculation system
• System of communication links between
HSE business units and HSE
Group companies
