The renovation of Andenne is the technical realization of an environmental commitment on the part of Luminus. A gigantic renovation project started in 2014: it was necessary to dismantle the two old machines and to evacuate several tens of tons of materials by boat and to put in place a metal formwork. The demolitions for the construction of the downstream conduit were of considerable technical complexity. The two new turbines, each 9m long and 7m in diameter, then arrived from Germany on an impressive cart.
The result: higher efficiency thanks to more efficient machines and better water recovery. Thanks to the replacement of the turbines, the power plant located on the Meuse now produces 33,000,000 kWh per year, or the 100% green consumption of 8,000 households.

The Maasroute that we follow has many beautiful places. This type of waterworks is also part of this: the Maasloop must be feasible for shipping. There are many locks that make this possible.
