HydroPower 2026

From 14 to 16 October 2026, HYDRO 2026 will bring the international hydropower and dams community together in Bologna under the theme “Adapting to change – Embracing opportunities.” The programme addresses key industry topics including hydropower refurbishment, pumped storage, dam safety, civil engineering, geomembranes, sustainable dams and environmental protection.

Visit Naue at stand no. 123 to discuss geosynthetic systems for dams, reservoirs, canals and other hydraulic structures. Our team will be available to explore project-specific requirements for sealing, filtration, protection, reinforcement and erosion control. Naue is officially confirmed as an exhibitor.

Why visit Naue at HYDRO 2026?

• Protect dams, reservoirs and canals
  Explore geosynthetic barrier systems for new hydraulic structures and the rehabilitation of ageing infrastructure. Geomembranes and geosynthetic clay liners can support reliable sealing, reduce seepage and protect structures over the long term.
• Control scour and erosion
  Discuss filter geotextiles, erosion-control systems and sand-filled geotextile solutions for waterways, foundations and other structures exposed to flowing water. These systems help prevent soil loss and improve long-term stability.
• Support efficient hydropower rehabilitation
  Learn how geosynthetics can contribute to the refurbishment of dams, canals, reservoirs and pumped-storage infrastructure while reducing material use and long-term maintenance requirements.
• Turn project requirements into practical solutions
  Talk to Naue specialists about lining-system design, filtration and drainage calculations, stability considerations, installation planning and quality assurance.
