    The cogeneration plant with the 140-meter-high chimney in the west of Karlsruhe is a reserve and peak load power plant of Stadtwerke Karlsruhe. It produces electricity and district heating and houses the central network control center of the Karlsruhe district heating supply. His work took it in 1901, where it was initially claimed with coal. In 1993, the firing with environmentally harmful heavy oil was abandoned and today the power plant is mainly powered by natural gas.
