Electricity has been generated at the Gersteinwerk power plant since 1917. In the first few years, electricity was produced using hard coal from the surrounding mines. In the 1970s, the site was expanded with natural gas-fired block systems. All power plant blocks installed today are based on the combination principle. The generators feed the electricity into the high and extra-high voltage grids. The location therefore makes an important contribution to the power supply in all load ranges. Source: rwe. com
