Description

Battersea Power Station er et nedlagt kulfyret kraftværk, der ligger på den sydlige bred af floden Themsen, i Nine Elms, Battersea, i London Borough of Wandsworth. Det blev bygget af London Power Company efter design af Leonard Pearce, Chefingeniør hos LPC, og CS Allott & Son Engineers. Arkitekterne var J Theo Halliday og Giles Gilbert Scott. Stationen er en af verdens største murstensbygninger og bemærkelsesværdig for sine originale, Art Deco interiørudstyr og dekoration.

Bygningen består af to kraftværker, bygget i to etaper i en enkelt bygning. Battersea A Power Station blev bygget mellem 1929–35, og Battersea B Power Station mod øst, mellem 1937–41, da bygningen blev sat på pause på grund af de forværrede virkninger af Anden Verdenskrig. Bygningen blev færdiggjort i 1955. "Battersea B" blev bygget efter et næsten identisk design som "Battersea A", som gav den ikoniske fire-skornede struktur.
