Swiss hydro at the ready

3 December 2015


Swiss power utilities have been warned that they may have to ramp up hydro production at high mountain plants this winter. This is to compensate for a loss of production caused by the 46-year-old Beznau nuclear power plant being taken out of service for maintenance checks.

A dry summer and autumn has also impacted upon hydro production.
