Experience power plant Höngg.
Sound, image and light impressively show how and from which resources we produce electricity. You will learn more about scientific aspects, why economical energy consumption is not only worthwhile for your wallet and how environmentally friendly energy production works.
The ewz Höngg power plant has been awarded the highest ecological quality label "naturemade star". You can see this, for example, on the natural shore design.translated by•May 14, 2017
