MVE Strž, Small hydroelectric power plant in Kroměříž, Czech Republic.
MVE Strž features three Kaplan turbines operating on the Morava River, generating 2.8 MW of power and producing 9.2 GWh of electricity annually.
The facility originated from a weir dating back to 1552, while the current power plant structure was constructed between 1920 and 1923 at a cost of 14 million Czech crowns.
Engineers Gustav Madlmayr and Karel Mikeš designed the power plant with classical architectural elements, earning it recognition as a Czech cultural monument.
The water intake channel includes ice breakers and coarse screens to protect the turbines and maintain operational efficiency throughout the year.
The power plant incorporates both historical weir infrastructure and modern hydroelectric technology, marking its evolution from water management to energy production.
