The Consulate General and Danish companies have recently been very active in the region of Khanty-Mansiysk. To follow up on the fruitful cooperation with Khanty-Mansiysk, 7 members of the Energy and Environment Club attended the annual Energy Efficiency Forum in Khanty-Mansiysk October 2013.

The Danish companies Grundfos, COWI, Hvidtved Larsen, Era-Power, Per Aarsleff, Weiss and Logstor participated in the event and continued the Danish success in the region with several agreements and plans for future cooperation.

The three companies Era-Power, Logstor and Weiss teamed up on the project “Kandinsky” on renewal of pipes, cleaning of boilers and the installation of new boilers in the region.

Khanty-Mansiysk Vodokanal (municipal enterprise of water supply and waste water treatment) engaged in dialogue with Grundfos on a project on a pumping station and with Hvidtved Larsen the plan of purchasing a new sewer cleaning tanker was taken.

These three projects will now be part of the new protocol signed between the Government of Khanty-Mansiysk and the Low Hanging Fruits concept.
