By converting the pumping station pumps at Born, Electroproject has made an innovative contribution to the sustainability goals of Rijkswaterstaat.

The conversion makes it possible to use the kinetic energy to generate electricity from the water that is discharged into the Born-Maasbracht Canal to maintain the level for shipping traffic in this Limburg canal.

According to Rijkswaterstaat, the total package offered by Electroproject was favorable for two reasons: firstly, due to the combination of price/quality, and secondly because Electroproject proposed a low-voltage motor that does not require specially trained high-voltage technicians to maintain. Additionally, Electroproject provided a frequency converter that delivers the correct voltage to the network regardless of the pump speed. Together with the contractor responsible for renovating the locks, Electroproject proved to be a party that could provide excellent support to Rijkswaterstaat.
