A museum of industrial archeology. It is worth visiting and learning more about the history of the Aqp. The plant has been operational again since 2009

The hydroelectric plant of Villa Castelli, located in Contrada "Battaglia", exploits the difference in height of about 120 meters between the loading chamber of Monte Fellone and the damping chamber of Contrada Battaglia. To produce electricity, the natural kinetic energy caused by the jump of the water is exploited, by installing a turbine downstream. The hydroelectric plant of Villa Castelli is at the forefront from a technical and management point of view. Fully automated, it is also equipped with a telecontrol and remote control system. This plant, which already existed in 1929, produced electricity until 1971.
It started working again in 2009
