Duero Engineering Group · Our History
Technical knowledge passed on, experience that evolves and new capabilities applied to energy, water and industrial projects.

These figures reflect the combined track record of our team and the group's member companies. The MW figure refers to the capacity of the units and projects we have taken part in; it does not represent plants we own, energy produced, or capacity installed by a single company.
The 60-plus years of experience refer to the combined track record of the team and the group's member companies, not to the age of a single entity.
Origins and evolution
Our history draws on more than 60 years of accumulated experience among the people and companies that gave rise to the group. Field knowledge, installation and commissioning are part of that track record, which predates the current organization.
Documented references include Huites in 1993 and El Cajón in 2004. The corporate CV places the consortium’s beginning in 2011: an integration milestone, distinct from the earlier track record and each company’s legal incorporation.
The track record includes hydromechanical scopes at La Yesca, lock installations in the Panama Canal and water engineering at El Zapotillo and El Cuchillo II. Today it brings together engineering, management, construction and installation for energy, water and industry.
Generations and continuity
Continuity across generations of the family is part of Duero’s history. Its value lies in sharing technical knowledge, learning from fieldwork and developing professional judgement with responsibility.
Each generation brings a new perspective to accumulated experience: preserving technical rigour while evolving with the needs of each project.
Documented references
Years refer to documented scopes, not to the full construction period of each project.

Jalisco / Nayarit, Mexico
Large-diameter hydromechanical works on diversion, discharge and energy-dissipation systems; COHYSA is named in the documented 2011–2012 reference. This period applies to that scope, not to all plant activities.

Jalisco, Mexico
Rehabilitation of intake works and bottom-outlet infrastructure, with supply and installation of pipelines and components, testing, and medium- and low-voltage electrical works.
View project2023

Nuevo León, Mexico
Multidisciplinary engineering for five pumping plants and the 84-inch conveyance line, with transient analysis, interface coordination and technical support for implementation.
View projectAnother reference from our track record
Installation of hydromechanical equipment and hydraulic systems for the locks, including gates, operating mechanisms, hydraulic power units and pipelines. Our participation covers specific hydromechanical equipment scopes within the canal expansion programme, not the construction of the waterway as a whole.
View projectContinuity into the present
Duero Engineering Group is an organization that brings together engineering, project management, construction and installation for energy, water and industrial projects. Its companies combine design, manufacturing, supply and site execution capabilities, so a single project can be covered from engineering through to commissioning support.
How we work
01
Review of technical bases, site conditions and interfaces with other contractors to define responsibilities and deliverables.
02
Work schedules, lift sequences, resources, execution procedures and quality and safety plans.
03
Integration of disciplines, manufacturers and work fronts, with document control and technical communication with the client.
04
Installation, rehabilitation or construction with site supervision, progress control and activity records.
05
Inspections, protocols and support for pre-operation testing, according to project specifications.
06
As-built drawings, quality records and technical closeout of the contracted scope.
This sequence describes available capabilities; the actual scope of each contract is defined with the client.
