Radio Kootwijk 50 kV substation

The Radio Kootwijk 50 kV substation features three high voltage towers and stands approximately one and a half kilometers north of Building A complex.

Built between 1923 and 1931, the substation supplied electricity to the Radio Kootwijk transmitter park, Dutch Railways, and the municipalities of Ede, Nunspeet, and Apeldoorn.

The structure exemplifies New Objectivity architecture through its functional design principles and straightforward industrial construction methods.

The substation, located at Radioweg 1A in Radio Kootwijk, received monument status in March 2006 under registration number 525031.

The facility transformed 50 kV high voltage power into 10 kV for distribution to the transmitter park and surrounding areas until its decommissioning in 2001.
