With these transactions, Tractebel Engineering SA now holds 100% ownership of Tractebel Hidro Dizayn Engineering, marking an important milestone in Tractebel’s journey in Turkey and reaffirming its long-term commitment to the country.
Founded in 1998, Hidro Dizayn (hidrodizayn.com) was transformed into a joint stock company in 2010, and started to enhance its overseas activities by the partnership established with German company Lahmeyer International GmbH in 2011. As a consequence of the sale of Lahmeyer to Tractebel in 2014, the partnership that began with Lahmeyer continues with Tractebel today.
Tractebel Hidro Dizayn currently consists of over 60 employees providing engineering design and consultancy services to both public and private clients, mainly in the hydropower and water resource management sectors. With the acquisition of the remaining shares by Tractebel, Tractebel Hidro Dizayn is now positioned to further expand its engineering and consultancy services for energy sector clients in Turkey and internationally.
Its services include renewable energy projects in hydroelectric, solar, PV & wind energy, irrigation and flood protection, municipal infrastructure & environment, transportation projects, and thermal power plants. Tractebel Hidro Dizayn has contributed to 8,742 MW total installed capacity of hydroelectric plants to date, representing 28% of hydroelectric power in Turkey.

3️. Full alignment with Tractebel’s low-carbon and energy transition strategy;
4️. Scaling up and continuing international expansion in energy and water projects;
5️. Playing a critical role in global Tractebel projects.
Full ownership will enable closer alignment across Tractebel’s business areas, fostering stronger collaboration and more agile decision‑making. It aims to streamline governance, simplify integration across teams, and accelerate the deployment of shared capabilities and expertise. Ultimately, this will strengthen our collective performance and enhance the value we are committed to delivering to clients across the full project lifecycle.
"Tractebel’s full ownership of Tractebel Hidro Dizayn marks a new stage in a long-standing and strong partnership. This step will allow our engineering capabilities rooted in Turkey and shaped by extensive international project experience to be leveraged more effectively across Tractebel’s global network. Hidro Dizayn will play an increasingly strategic role in delivering multidisciplinary design expertise, particularly for Water and Energy projects worldwide. At the same time, this closer integration creates greater opportunities for our teams to collaborate and grow on an international scale, while continuing to deliver integrated, innovative, and high value-added engineering solutions to our clients."
