Bogota, July 27 (UNI) The first two of the eight turbines of the hydropower plant Hidroituango, which is expected to become the most powerful in Colombia, will start operations in October and on-site water testing will commence in September, project operator company Empresas Publicas de Medellin (EPM) said.
"EPM will put into commercial operation the unit no 1 of Hidroituango on October 15 and unit no 2 on October 20," the company said in a statement.
