Description

The Zschornewitz power plant was one of the oldest power plants in Germany and is now an industrial monument.
In 1913, the Berliner Elektrizitäts-Werke reached its capacity limits, so new electricity supply contracts had to be negotiated with the city of Berlin. At that time, AEG was a leader in the field of electrical power generation and wanted to supply Berlin with long-distance electricity. As a result, a power plant was planned with six steam turbines, each with an electrical output of 16 MW, and 60 steam boilers, each with a heating surface of 450 m². The necessary lignite was to come from the Golpa-Jeßnitz opencast mining area. There were three designs for the power plant site, which were related to the supply of cooling water for the power plant.
