Hagenwerder Power Plant

The Hagenwerder power plant was a power plant in Hagenwerder, which has been a district of Görlitz in the eastern part of Saxony since 1994. The power plant was fueled by lignite from the Berzdorf Basin, which is part of the Upper Lusatian lignite district. To extract this coal, the Berzdorf open-pit mine was reopened in the 1950s.
The first plans for the construction of a coal-fired power plant near Leuba were made during World War I in 1915. A decade later, the German Petroleum Corporation, as the owner of the Berzdorf lignite mine, considered building a power plant. In 1938, a power plant project at the Berzdorf mine was discussed for the third time.
