Hi there,
It's pretty impressive what electricity such a small power plant produces and, above all, how long it has been 👍🏻
I don't know whether this is a highlight, but it is definitely worth a detour if you are in the vicinity.
Greetings Marcus

Obere Donau Kraftwerke AG is a subsidiary of Rhein-Main-Donau GmbH founded on December 18, 1958 and based in Landshut, which owns six run-of-river power plants on the Upper Danube between Ulm and Dillingen. The company is owned by Rhein-Main-Donau AG with a share of 60% and Energie Baden-Württemberg AG with 40%. [1] EnBW markets all of the electricity from the power plant.

The company's six power plants are equipped identically. Each power plant has two sets of machines. The machines are two double-regulated Kaplan turbines with a standing shaft, each with a directly attached synchronous generator. [] The heads vary between 5.00 and 6.61 meters, the total output per power plant is between 7.35 and 10.1 megawatts , an average of 49.5 GWh is generated per power plant and year. The management of the power plants lies with Bayerische Elektrizitätswerke GmbH in Augsburg. [3

It's amazing how much electricity a hydroelectric power plant produces over decades.
Should you have seen it up close.
