Asti

At the new hydropower plant in Asti, the rubber dam is used to regulate head water. At the site of an older weir installation, this project utilises the head of the Tanaro river in Asti. The rubber dam comprises two weir spans of different lengths. This enables the retention of some current on the left bank. The rubber dam has a width of 135m overall, and both weir spans are 2m high.
