The Altenwörth power plant is one of the largest run-of-river power plants in Austria. It is located on the Danube in the municipality of Altenwörth and is operated by VERBUND AG. Commissioned in 1976, the power plant has produced approximately 2.1 billion kilowatt hours annually since then, equivalent to the annual energy needs of approximately 600,000 households. The Altenwörth power plant is equipped with a fish pass to ensure the ecological continuity of the Danube. It also plays an important role in flood protection, as the weir can intervene to regulate flooding.

When there is no wind and the sun is shining, you have an impressive view of the water surface above the dam!
