From the top you have a beautiful view of the Lenne valley, which is dominated here by the Dresel power plant.

The power plant "Dresel" Werdohl-Elverlingsen in Elverlingsen near Werdohl is a largely decommissioned medium and peak load power plant of the Mark-E, which will be used as the location of a battery storage power plant from 2018. In June 2018, a battery storage power plant was put into operation on the power plant site, which provides primary control power with 8.96 MW power and 9.8 MWh energy from electric car batteries.

Look at industrial and environmental history. Up to a few years ago, up to 4,500 tons of hard coal were burned here. The diesel power plant was a so-called control power plant to balance the power grid. It ran an average of 60% of the time.

Today:
Today the gas and coal blocks are shut down, only sewage sludge is burned here. The power plant was converted into a battery storage power plant. Electricity is stored here with used vehicle batteries and released again at peak load times. The control power is about 9MW.
