Heavy Engineering Ltd was formed in 1979 by our current Managing Director, Mr Nayan Patel.
In the early 1980’s we entered the hydropower sector in Kenya, initially by supplying skilled manpower for the erection of plant equipment for the main contractors. Our first major hydropower project was Kiambere Hydroelectric Power Project in 1985, where we were the subcontractors responsible for installation of Turbines, Generators, and Hydromechanical Equipment. This project also marked our first experience in manufacturing of Turbine parts for hydropower projects; we manufactured 2 sets each of Draft Tube Liner, Spiral Casing and Pit Liners.
