   GRAZ/VIENNA, SEPTEMBER 8, 2026.  International technology group ANDRITZ,
   in partnership with the Slovak engineering firm VUJE, has been awarded by
   VODOHOSPODÁRSKA VÝSTAVBA a contract to carry out a comprehensive
   modernization of the Gabčíkovo hydroelectric power plant on the Danube,
   the largest hydroelectric facility in Slovakia and a central component of
   the national energy infrastructure, accounting for approximately 10% of
   Slovakia’s electricity production.

   The project involves the comprehensive renewal and modernization of the
   plant’s electromechanical equipment, which currently has a total capacity
   of 720 MW, and will make a significant contribution to ensuring reliable
   and sustainable electricity generation in the long term.

   The order value is in the mid three-digit million-euro range. It is
   included in ANDRITZ's order intake for the third quarter of 2026.

   As part of the modernization project, the eight Kaplan turbine-generator
   units will be gradually refurbished and brought up to the latest technical
   standards. The goal is to improve the plant’s efficiency and availability
   and to extend the technical service life of the key operating equipment by
   at least 30 years.

   The scope of supply includes model test, engineering, manufacturing,
   installation, and commissioning, modernization of key turbine and
   generator components, automation systems, excitation, protection, and
   control systems, as well as renewal of transformers and auxiliary
   electrical systems.

   The work will be carried out sequentially to maintain availability during
   the modernization and minimize the impact on ongoing operations.
