Ministry of Infrastructure and Transport issues EUR 47.78 million tender for Dam construction project

Greece's Ministry of Infrastructure and Transport has launched a EUR 47.78 million tender to complete the construction of the Nestori Dam in Kastoria and its accompanying infrastructure works, aiming to enhance regional water management and agricultural irrigation.

Greece's Ministry of Infrastructure and Transport has initiated a public procurement process for a EUR 47.78 million tender to complete the construction of the Nestori Dam of Kastoria and its accompanying projects in Greece.

This major development is crucial for northern Greece as it resolves long-standing technical, geotechnical, and hydraulic challenges that previously halted the project after only approximately 20% of the technical scope was realized. Resuming and finalizing this critical water infrastructure safeguards the region against severe flooding, preserves natural water resources, and ensures long-term operational stability for local energy and agricultural networks.

The execution of this project directly impacts the civil engineering, heavy construction, hydraulic infrastructure, energy, and agricultural sectors. Regionally, the expanded reservoir capacity will transform local farming dynamics across 75,000 acres by enabling a shift toward high-value crops such as legumes and vegetables, while the integrated hydroelectric power station contributes to regional renewable energy targets.

For contractors, engineering consultancies, and infrastructure investors, the project opens significant opportunities in large-scale earthworks, specialized tunneling, structural concrete application, and hydro-energy technology integration. The Ministry of Infrastructure and Transport is the central executive agency responsible for developing, supervising, and managing major national public works, transport networks, and public infrastructure assets across Greece.
