Conference materials
Professor Volker Bettzieche of the Ruhrverband, Dr Hans-Ullrich Sieber of the State Dam Authority of the Free State of Saxony and Professor Heinz Dƶring of Mittweida University of Applied Sciences have been members of the conference committee from the outset.
Development with an impact
For almost 30 years, Talsperrentag has stood for mutual exchange and the practical application of knowledge. What began as an idea with just eight participants has developed into an integral part of university life and the āTalsperren familyā.
- Strong partners and co-organisers
- Steadily rising participant numbers
- A growing variety of topics
- Contributions from across Europe
- Company presentations
- Establishment as a platform for knowledge transfer
With the Ruhrverband, the State Dam Authority of the Free State of Saxony and the German Dam Committee as co-organisers, and Mittweida University of Applied Sciences acting as conference organisers, Dam Day is gaining in stability and is becoming a regular feature of the programme at hydraulic engineering conferences.
