HYDRO POWER
EDF's La Coche hydroelectric plant in France has adopted the Superbolt Tool to improve maintenance efficiency. This tool reduces the maintenance time needed for the G5 Pelton wheel by enabling simultaneous tightening of over 250 jackbolts, leading to a reduction in labor hours by two-thirds. The La Coche facility, a major contributor to France's hydroelectric power generation, is equipped with advanced turbine technology to manage water inflows effectively.
