The specially created turbine canal (at the time created as a kind of third line arm) was dammed up, and turbines then supplied the factory with relatively environmentally friendly electricity. When the wool was torn down, Neue Heimat removed the still new turbines, sold them and concreted over the turbine shafts. Subsequent attempts to use the energy of the water here at the turbine weir or at the neighboring large line weir have so far been unsuccessful.
