Mühleberg power station
Mühleberg power station, Run-of-river power station in Mühleberg, Switzerland.
The Mühleberg power station produces 45 megawatts of hydroelectric energy by utilizing the natural flow of the Aare River at 471 meters elevation.
The Mühleberg hydroelectric facility was constructed between 1917 and 1921, marking a significant development in Switzerland's energy infrastructure during the early 20th century.
The power station holds the status of Swiss townscape worthy of protection, reflecting its importance in the industrial heritage of the Bern-Mittelland region.
