[Web](http://www.hydropower-dams.com) EnergySustainability & EnvironmentConstruction & Building Joaquín Montesinos • Published September 5, 2026 Hydropower projects require tight coordination between engineering, environmental safeguards and finance. HYDRO 2026 runs from 14 to 16 October 2026 at the Bologna Congress Center and is organised by the team behind Hydropower & Dams. ## Dates and venue HYDRO 2026 is scheduled for 14 to 16 October 2026 at the Bologna Congress Center. Registration details and official updates are published at [http://www.hydropower-dams.com](http://www.hydropower-dams.com). ## Technical topics on the agenda The event’s programme highlights a wide technical scope. Listed areas include planning, dams, sediment management, safety, refurbishment and upgrading, hybrid schemes and floating solar, pumped storage, run-of-river and small hydro. That technical breadth attracts participants involved in both design and operation of hydropower assets. ## Key figures from the previous edition Available records show HYDRO 2025 took place in Thessaloniki and brought together more than 1,000 international hydropower specialists from 69 countries. That scale illustrates the international reach of the HYDRO series. ## How to prepare B2B prospecting for Hydro 2026 1. Use the Industry Guide. The organiser maintains an online database of companies active in the sector which helps identify suppliers and consultancies. 2. Segment targets by technical focus. Prioritise contacts by area such as turbine suppliers, sediment specialists or fish protection technology providers. 3. Schedule meetings in advance. Reach out to exhibitors and directory contacts to fix one-on-one discussions ahead of the event. 4. Bring concise technical collateral. Case summaries and product datasheets speed up technical conversations and decision making. 5. Set concrete objectives per meeting. Aim for specific outcomes like obtaining technical leads, arranging a site visit or agreeing on pilot tests. ## Attendee and exhibitor profile The HYDRO series typically attracts manufacturers, engineering consultancies, plant operators and financiers engaged in hydropower and water management. The mix of technical sessions and an industry directory supports commercial dialogue between equipment vendors, safety specialists and project developers. ## Final recommendation and official link Technical depth and cross-disciplinary demands mean targeted preparation yields better commercial outcomes than broad outreach.
