In addition to four 4.100 kVA, 4.000 V, 300 rpm generators, the scope of work also included associated excitation systems, automatic bearing lubrication systems and generator grounding.

The end-customer is a South Dakota-based legacy company operating across three federal states, with a diverse generation fleet, and transmission and distribution services. Our collaboration with U.S. partners was highly successful, and the project proved particularly engaging due to its technical complexities and the specific demands of the end customer.

Supervision over the commissioning of the first generator was completed in December 2022, while the last G4 was successfully brought online in March 2022.

The inaugural delivery and commissioning of compact generators in the US market is another great achievement for KONČAR.

It is important to highlight that last year we completed a technically rigorous prequalification process for Ontario Power Generation (OPG) in Canada. OPG, one of the largest electricity producers in the region, operates 66 hydropower plants in Canada and 87 across the U.S. As part of this process, we shipped stator coil samples for independent testing. Designed for generators up to 10 MW, the coils passed all tests successfully. However, the final stage of the process, including an on-site audit, was delayed until this fall due to unforeseen circumstances.

We are also looking to expand our activities in the North American market, with plans to attend industry conferences and engage in key professional events.
