About us

These are our business areas:

Engineering expertise. Made in Germany.

The origins of our company lie in the former state water management companies of Saxony and Thuringia, as well as the former VEB Wasserwirtschaft Bode. This has resulted in almost 50 years of experience in the field of dam construction and hydropower plants. In the course of the takeover by Lahmeyer International GmbH, the range of services was constantly expanded and changed.

Today, as Tractebel Hydroprojekt GmbH, we are part of Tractebel with headquarters in Brussels. We are a modern engineering office with seven locations throughout Germany and highly specialised experts who work together to find solutions for our clients' highly complex requirements. To do this, we use advanced IT applications and innovative technical solutions.
