    Tips

    July 3, 2024

    The current run-of-river power station was built between 1973 and 1975 as the first stage of a planned "Molln pumped storage group". This would have included a large reservoir in the Krummen Steyrling valley. The first plans date from the interwar period and were further developed up until the 1960s. However, the entire project ultimately failed due to protests from the population. Work on the reservoir began in April 1973, and the bottom outlet and headrace tunnels were opened in the same year. The Steyr River was diverted through these two tunnels the following year. The dam was built from mid-February 1974 to April 20, 1975, and damming began on April 24 and was completed on June 27.
